Why read it?
3 authors picked Our Missing Hearts as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
In a disquieting echo of current events, it shows in believable detail the consequences of authoritatian racism, as the reader shares in the characters' struggles
Like Prophet Song, the world Ng plants us in is exceedingly bleak. But the doggedness of the characters reminds us how in love there is always hope, though perhaps not triumph.
This one captured my heart completely, and I sobbed at the end. Although dystopian, it is a timely story about the consequences of racism, oppression, and fear in America. The main characters are a boy and his missing mother. His quest to find her will touch you deeply.
I love emotionally gripping books that carry a deep message or meaning, and this one does that beautifully.
From Diane's list on strong, persistent women.
