ksherman712 's review for:
The Tortilla Curtain
by T.C. Boyle
no words
Okay - words: ANGRY; a book for the present day; juxtaposition of privileged vs. immigrants trying to survive.
This is not my typical read. I like a book with love and redeemable characters and happy endings. This book was painful to read, sad, and literally so many descriptions of hate —- ugh it was hard hard read. But still worthy of reading and discussing.
This book paints a very real picture of wealth and access and class, and places it in the closest proximity to indescribable poverty, barriers, and the will to survive.
Again - ANGRY. I felt so much for America, Soccoro and all that she endures.
