America

Tom Coraghessan Boyle

Društveni roman čija je radnja smještena u prvorazredno privatno naselje na rubu Los Angelesa u devedesetim godinama prošlog stoljeća.

Roman prati živote dva para, Delaneya i Kyrae Mossbacher, autora mjesečne kolumne u prirodoznanstvenom časopisu i agetince za nekretnine, liberalno-humanističke pripadnike bjelačke srednje klase, i Candida i Americe Rincon, ilegalnih meksičkih imigranata, u stalnoj potrazi za slabo plaćenim, manualnim poslovima, koji žive u improviziranom kampu u kanjonu nedaleko privatnog naselja Mossbacherovih. Njihovi životi se isprepleću, stvarajući sumornu sliku ispunjenu uzajamnim strahom i mržnjom pripadnika različitih društvenih slojeva, dok se istodobno svi upinju pronaći osjećaj sigurnosti i prosperiteta u svijetu koji i društveno i ekološki ubrzano erodira.
