Description:
"Wow, Joanne Ramos has written the page-turner about immigrants chasing what's left of the American dream. . . . Truly unforgettable." --Gary Shteyngart, New York Times bestselling author of Super Sad True Love Story and Lake Success " The Farm terrifies with a simple question: How much of ourselves are we willing to sell? With characters so real they leap off the page, Ramos yanks the reader into a world of Haves and Have-Nots, and her question lingers long after we turn the final page."-- Christina Dalcher, author of Vox " The Farm is a completely plausible imagination of the future of pregnancy in a world of ever-greater inequality. What at first feels off-kilter is slowly ramped up to truly chilling, and it's done so subtly that we barely notice the change happening--it's not afraid to ask searching questions about who wins and who loses when women's bodies are commodified, and how freedom and agency for some come at a cost for others. It's sharply prescient, and terrifying, too." --Sophie Mackintosh, author of The Water Cure
