Carmen Boullosa

A historical examination of tension and conflict on the Texas-Mexico border, told from the Mexican perspective, that's especially relevant today.

This book feels like going to a party with a fever, it was so uniquely dream like. Someone in class said it feels like when someone tries to tell you a dream they had and you just can’t keep up with them and that is the perfect way to describe it. There is a lot going on, the amount of characters is ridiculous but it really elevated the story in terms of the gossip narrative. I overall loved it! I was giggling up a storm then the next page would be so disgusted. Ultimately Texans suck and I can confirm. 
Also quite interesting how practically everything we know of the main character is heresay. Added a fun element of do we like him? Who’s opinion do we trust? I love him, but people in class disagree.
