Abstract

“Where We Belong” grapples with questions of home and place: what is “home,” and how does being forced to leave your country complicate that concept? The writer combines suspense and reflection to arrive at a thoughtful answer. We travel a layered journey through the author’s fear and need to escape from country, while considering how that emotional trek necessarily transforms the notion of home. This author’s idea will resonate with anyone who has had to leave “home,” better illuminating a significant issue of our era.
