Lost Children Archive is a 2019 novel by writer Valeria Luiselli. Luiselli was in part inspired by the ongoing American policy of separating children from their parents at the Mexican-American border.[3] The novel is the first book Luiselli wrote in English.[3] The novel details a cross-country journey in a car by a husband and wife, Mama and Papa, and their children, "the girl" and "the boy," both from previous relationships.[4][5]
According to literary review aggregator Book Marks, the novel received overwhelmingly positive reviews.[6] The novel was longlisted for the 2019 Booker Prize[7] and the 2019 Women's Prize for Fiction.[8]
The novel was translated into Spanish by Luiselli and Daniel Saldaña París with the title Desierto sonoro. It was released in e-book format by Vintage Español, an imprint of Knopf Doubleday, in September 2019 and in paperback format in October 2019.[9]
