HI,    This week, May 29,  is Little Book of the Odd Month Club and the book to 
be read and discussed is The Devil's HIghway, by Luis Alberto Urrea.  
> From the Atlantic Monthly, this quote:

"The single most compelling, lucid and lyrical contemporary account of the 
absurdity of U.S. border policy----Urrea cuts through the prevailing 
mythologies surrounding the border and reveals,  unsentimentally but with 
compassion, how a simple political boundary manages to scramble the basic 
humanity of all whose lives it divides and defines."

Hope to see you.
