Summary

Evans draws the faces of refugees coming from Syria, Africa, and elsewhere to *The Jungle,* a makeshift refugee camp in Calais, France, and in doing so she captures the refugees' full humanity, intelligence, and suffering as they search for family, home, and dignity. Accompanying the story of Evan's time spent among the refugees--the insights acquired and the lives recounted--is the counterpoint of prejudice and scapegoating arising from the political right. She addresses one of the most pressing issues of modern times to make a compelling case, through intimate evidence, for the compassionate treatment of refugees and the free movement of peoples. --From publisher description
