Boyle in \u003ci\u003eThe Tortilla Curtain\u003c\/i\u003e, Viramontes (\u003ci\u003eThe Moths and Other Stories\u003c\/i\u003e) presents a moving and powerful vision of the lives of the men, women, and children who endure a second-class existence and labor under dangerous conditions in California's fields.   This first novel tells the story a young girl, Estrella, and her Latino family as they struggle with arduous farm labor during the summer months, and still manage to latch onto the hope of a liberating future.  Viramontes graces the page with poetic touch, artfully describing poverty conditions and bringing to the reader a panoramic view of social consciousness and unforgettable characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolitics \u0026amp; Social Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocial Sciences\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCultural \u0026amp; Ethnic Studies\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatin American\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eHispanic American Studies\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Plume","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":46697319071934,"sku":"0452273870-4","price":14.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/81ujoF6ZFBL.jpg?v=1777486147","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0452273870-under_the_feet_of_jesus","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
