The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle, T.C. Boyle
4.0
This is not a book to enjoy. It's depressing and the characters are not likeable. I did not look forward to reading it. However, it is important social commentary done with satire. I thought the ending was perfect.
I read this as a school project. I would not have my high school students read this book. I doubt if they would be able to stick with it. My students are years behind in their reading levels. This book would be fine for upper high school grades who are on reading level. It would also be appropriate for college level literature classes.
