Winner of the 2016 Best Translated Book Award

He explores the crossings and translations people make in their minds and language as they move from one country to another, especially when there\u2019s no going back. Traversing this lonely territory is Makina, a young woman who knows only too well how to survive in a violent, macho world. Leaving behind her life in Mexico to search for her brother, she is smuggled into the USA carrying a pair of secret messages \u2013 one from her mother and one from the Mexican underworld.
