Book Club: The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle

Winner of the Prix Medicis Etranger and now a major motion picture.

 

The Book Club is still meeting on Zoom for the time being.

This month's selection is The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle

from Amazon:
Topanga Canyon is home to two couples on a collision course. Los Angeles liberals Delaney and Kyra Mossbacker lead an ordered, sushi-and-recycling existence in a newly gated hilltop community: He is a sensitive nature writer, she an obsessive realtor. Mexican illegals Candido and America Rincon desperately cling to their vision of the American Dream as they fight off starvation in a makeshift camp deep in the ravine.
From the moment a freak accident brings Candido and Delany into intimate contact, these four and their opposing worlds gradually intersect in what becomes a tragicomedy of error and misunderstanding.

Winner of the Prix Medicis Etranger and now a major motion picture.
