I really appreciate Soto's gift and challenge! - By: , 27 Nov 1997
Soto delineates nineteen-year-old Chicano boy who has no luckin his life despite his continuous efforts to improve it. In contrast to the serious plot, Soto's narrative tone is modest, restrained, and, at times, humorous, similar to less serious books he has written before, & his insight is vivid & precise. His challengein this work has been triumphant!
