    Boyle's best in my opinion. A short but great read that serves to remind that, despite our differences, we're all the same under the skin.

    The main character is a holier-than-thou putz. I hate that.

    This was a difficult read for me. Painful to get through, in fact. I endured for an anthropology course I was taking. I just didn't appreciate any part of the writing style or anything. It's not often that I dislike a book so much but I definitely did not care for this one.

    Lives of a wealthy environmentalist and a poor Mexican couple, "illegals" just trying to get work and a new life, intersect and contrast hugely in this somewhat disturbing novel. I look forward to plenty of book-club discussion of the book's huge contrasts and ironies.
