The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle
3.0
Positives: Well written, the use of nature and a nature column is quite clever
Negative: graphic depictions of violence, one-dimensional unrealistic unlikeable characters, I think you're supposed to sympathise with a character who marries a child at the age of 33 and takes her to another country, and then constantly beats her. And as another person said, the depiction of hispanic characters isn't exactly complimentary. Also, the plot isn't really all that interesting, it's mostly just grim.
