In 2018, Jacob Soboroff became among the first journalists to expose the reality of child separations after seeing firsthand the living conditions of the children in custody. But beyond the headlines, the complete, multi-layered story lay untold. How, exactly, had such a humanitarian tragedy-now deemed "torture" by physicians-happened on American soil? Soboroff spent two years reporting the many strands of this complex narrative to produce his acclaimed New York Times best-seller, Separated. Developing sources from within the Trump administration who share critical details for the first time, Soboroff also traces the heartbreaking odyssey of one family from Guatemala, where their lives were threatened by narcos, to seek asylum at the U.S. border, where they were separated. And he joins the hearoes who emerged to challenge the policy, and who worked on the ground to reunite parents with children. Hailed as "the seminal book on the child-separation policy" by Rachel Maddow, Separated is an essential document of our time that must be studied and understood for years to come. Book jacket.
