Winner of the 2024 Kevin McIlvoy Book Prize, The Age of Migration follows people on the move- across borders, families, and inner lives- confronting what motion promises and what it costs. Set in intimate, unsettled places around the globe, these stories trace journeys shaped by choice, necessity, and circumstance. Travelers venture into unfamiliar terrain; workers and families face sudden moral reckonings; acts meant as care ripple into unforeseen consequences. With clarity, restraint, and emotional precision, The Age of Migration illuminates quiet negotiations of belonging and responsibility, and asks what it means to carry oneself forward in a world defined by constant change.
