"The Great Wall of America" by David A. Hewitt is an urgent and compelling novelette. Hewitt paints a nightmarish yet plausible scenario of what could happen if workers from migrant caravans were pressed into forced servitude, building a wall at the southern Mexican-American border.

The Southern Border Wall: originally a public-works project to employ America’s down-and-out, fiscal necessity has transformed it into a string of forced-labor camps for prisoners, refugees, and undocumented immigrants. In this tale of a dark and not-so-distant future, when Asaad, one of a four-person work crew, is injured by brutal captors, his crewmembers, led by the resourceful Rafa, must make a grim decision. Will they abandon their comrade to almost-certain death? Or stand together and attempt a perhaps-suicidal escape, hemmed in by razorwire, armed guards with dogs, the unforgiving desert, and the towering Wall?

Interview with David A. Hewitt: This book includes a must-read interview with David A. Hewitt by Salik Shah, the founding editor and publisher of Mithila Review. "The Great Wall of America" first appeared in Issue 11 of Mithila Review, the journal of international science fiction & fantasy (2019).
