By the Lake of Sleeping Children: The Secret Life of the Mexican Border by Luis Urrea

5.0

The work of a generous and giving writer. Urrea tells the stories of people we know about in the shadows and that we most likely feel bad for, and that feeling doesn't really change, but we read about the lives they experience, their friendships, their families as well as their work and so no longer can we pretend not to see them smile and laugh.
