I didn't want it to end' CHRISTINA PATTERSON, SUNDAY TIMES  Winner of the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction A Barack Obama Favourite Book of the Year Winner of the 2022 Anthony Lukas Book Prize Winner of the 2022 Gotham Book Prize Winner of the 2022 Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism A New York Times 10 Best Books of 2021 A Time Top Three Books of the Year An Atlantic Top Five Books of the Year Finalist in the 2022 Los Angeles Times Book Prizes  'This is non-fiction writing at its best - uncluttered, evocative and well-researched' GARY YOUNGE, NEW STATESMEN  'An intimate exploration of poverty and racism in the U.S., as well as a portrait of a young person's resilience' TIME  'One of the most moving and extraordinary pieces of reportage I've ever read' BEE WILSON  'Andrea Elliott's reporting has an intimate, almost limitless feel to it... The result of this unflinching, tenacious reporting is a rare and powerful work whose stories will live inside you long after you've read them.' NEW YORK TIMES __________________________________  Based on nearly a decade of reporting, Invisible Child follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani Coates, a child with an imagination as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn homeless shelter. Born at the turn of a new century, Dasani is named for the bottled water that comes to symbolise Brooklyn's gentrification and the shared aspirations of a divided city. As Dasani moves with her family from shelter to shelter, this story traces the passage of Dasani's ancestors from slavery to the Great Migration north.  Dasani comes of age as New York City's homeless crisis is exploding. In the shadows of this new Gilded Age, Dasani leads her seven siblings through a thicket of problems: hunger, parental drug addiction, violence, housing instability, segregated schools and the constant monitoring of the child-protection system.  When, at age thirteen, Dasani enrolls at a boarding school in Pennsylvania, her loyalties are tested like never before. Ultimately, she faces an impossible question: What if leaving poverty means abandoning the family you love?  By turns heartbreaking and revelatory, provocative and inspiring, Invisible Child tells an astonishing story about the power of resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality.  'Simply put, this is a masterpiece' THOMAS HARDING  'A tender portrait of a family, and a tour of America's broken welfare systems and racist policies.'
