I was born in the Philippines. At age 12, my mother sent me to the United States to live with her parents. While applying for a driver’s permit, I found out my papers were fake. More than two decades later, I am still here illegally, with no clear path to American citizenship. To some people, I am the “most famous illegal” in America, but I am only one of an estimated 11 million human beings whose uncertain fate is under threat in a country I call my home.
This book—at its core—is not about immigration at all. This book is about the unsettled, unmoored psychological state that undocumented immigrants like myself find ourselves in. This book is about what it means to not have a home.
