I first looked at this on the authonomy website quite some time ago and was happy to revisit it. It's truly engaging non-fiction -- looking into the lives of characters who are real and how they handle situations is often instructive; falling in love, coming to a knowledge of oneself as we journey through life in and out of national and international borders are things which so many can identify with, and I certainly do. A touching, moving real-life story imbued with warmth, humour and a sense of the magical.
