Synopsis
This important and timely book from a Pulitzer Prize finalist follows the brutal journey a group of men take to cross the Mexican border.
"The single most compelling, lucid, and lyrical contemporary account of the absurdity of U.S. border policy" —The Atlantic
In May 2001, a group of men attempted to cross the Mexican border into the desert of southern Arizona, through the deadliest region of the continent, the "Devil's Highway." Three years later, Luis Alberto Urrea wrote about what happened to them. The result was a national bestseller, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, a "book of the year" in multiple newspapers, and a work proclaimed as a modern American classic.
