The Devil's Highway by Luis Alberto Urrea

adventurous dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

This book is revealing.  I particularly found the physiology of death by extreme heat and dehydration compelling.  We hear about death every day.  People die.  People die by auto accident, bombing, weaponry, all manner of ways.  But how our bodies die is not a gentle process.  We don't just gently pass into another conciousness.
The border is not just a place that is mine or yours to control.  We need to find our humanity again.
I also found the border economics of the border states, in this case Arizona,,  revealing.
