The book is divided into three acts; the Exposition, Rising Action, and Climax. It is meant to resemble a dramatic play that comes with a constantly shifting plot, acted out by thousands of migrants. At the same time, each migrant has his or her own story; Brigden captures their unique experiences along the route, their interactions with other migrants, and their strategies and practices that they develop within this three part “play” to present the information in the fashion that it is experienced.
