She’d seen them in Managua and Port-au-Prince,Caracas and Bogotá. Everywhere in the world she’d gone,she’d seen them. Now she is one of them. Now this is her, curbside at the airport in Frankfurt-am-Main. Behind her is a pile of eight oversized mismatched suitcases.

Now she knows:someone who needs to pack absolutely everything, all atonce.
