The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle, T.C. Boyle

4.0

What do you think about illegal immigration? Are you sure? This book might change your thinking. The story is told from alternating points of view: an illegal Mexican immigrant and a well-off U.S. citizen in California. It's like watching a tennis match. Each character will engage your sympathy and your disapproval. There's nothing simple about this issue, and there's nothing simple about this story.
