Poet Becky Thompson uses her experience working in camps for asylum seekers in Greece to allow the refugees to speak for themselves and express their unique individuality in a wide variety of forms. The poems combine a sociologist's eye for detail with a poet's heart to create a compassionate, moving, and paradoxically beautiful portrait of this ongoing humanitarian crisis.
