Listen
Listening to Bruno’s story, we gain insight into what initial entry into the new land feels like from a child’s perspective. We hear of missing extended family, the downward mobility in living circumstances, the inability to communicate, and so much more. We hear how, for Bruno, school becomes a refuge as he begins to master the new language and realizes that he is a highly capable student in no small part because he works 20 times harder than everyone else. Despite the losses and costs, we also hear laughter and the pleasure of finding community and small moments of joy.
