Fifteen-year-old Aaron lives and works amid the garbage piles of Cairo. His job? To collect broken glass. His hope? To find a future he can believe in.

Today in Cairo, Egypt, there is a city within a city: a city filled with garbage--literally. As one of the Zabbaleen people, Aaron makes his living sorting through the waste. When his family kicks him out, his only alternatives are to steal, beg, or take the most nightmarish garbage-collecting job of all.
