Bisi Adjapon’s Daughter in Exile is a powerful, gut-wrenching exploration of the “American Dream” through the eyes of an undocumented Ghanaian woman. Navigating the intersections of racism, religious hypocrisy, and the resilience of motherhood, Lola’s journey is a testament to the strength required to survive when the odds are stacked against you. A thought-provoking read for older students looking to understand the complex reality of the immigrant experience.
