ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Our Missing Hearts” by Celeste Ng is a dystopian novel set in a future America governed by the P.A.C.T. law, which suppresses dissent and punishes those who challenge the government. The story follows Bird, a 12-year-old boy, as he uncovers the truth about his mother, Margaret, a poet and activist who fought against the regime. As Bird searches for answers, he grapples with themes of censorship, family separation, and the personal cost of resistance. The novel explores the impact of authoritarianism, the power of art as defiance, and the complexities of loyalty, sacrifice, and identity in an oppressive society.
