A literary achievement filled with poignancy, drama, and humanity, American Dirt is a work destined to leave its readers utterly changed . . .  

Already being hailed as "a Grapes of Wrath for our times" and "a new American classic", Jeanine Cummins' American Dirt is a rare exploration into the inner hearts of people willing to sacrifice everything for a glimmer of hope. 

“The story is masterfully composed of timeless elements: the nightmare logic of grief, the value of human kindness, the power of love to drive us to do the unimaginable.  Cummins proves that fiction can be a vehicle for expanding our empathy.” -- Time
