""An emotional and intrepid account of the Los Angeles wildfires. . . . A cathartically heartbreaking account of the unique horror of watching one's community reduced to ash."" - Publishers Weekly

""The seminal book on the child-separation policy."" - Rachel Maddow, The Rachel Maddow Show ""Groundbreaking. ... All the original reporting in this book is extraordinary."" - Andrea Mitchell ""Separated, by the MSNBC and NBC News correspondent Jacob Soboroff, shows how the Trump administration implemented a policy that amounted to a humanitarian catastrophe: systematically taking children from their migrant parents at the border. ... Will give you a sense of how the United States, a country that prides itself on its constitutional protections, also possesses a body of immigration laws that can be weaponized by an executive branch willing to do it. ... [A] horrifying story. ... Highlight[s] the secrecy and 'extraordinary confusion' of the process. ... What Soboroff memorably depicts isn't just tragic but brutal. Any soaring rhetoric about yearning to breathe free has been traded in for the crudest of threats: If you try to come here, just look at what we're willing to do."" - Jennifer Szalai, New York Times
