If you want to skip the rape but read everything else: it happens when a boss invites an employee into his office during a party. Once that happens, skip a couple pages, and you're good (aftereffects are discussed, but in no way graphically).

I…wow…I have no words for Infinite Country. This short, yet beautiful tale tells the story of a family split between the United States and Colombia. We learn about each member of the family and what it means to be a citizen of a country. Engel’s exquisitely-written story gives readers a perspective on immigration and what makes a person a citizen of a country. Infinite country held my attention for an entire weekend and is a book I recommend picking up if you haven’t already had the chance to.
