I read this book with my book club and then never got to the meeting. :-( They had a great discussion about it!
The story involves two very different families and how the financial crisis of 2008 impacted them...in very different ways.
One is an immigrant family with no papers allowing Jende (the father) to stay in the U.S. The other is a wealthy family whose father, Clark, is a Lehman employee.
The book delves into many different issues and presents sympathetic characters on "both sides of the fence."
I really enjoyed reading it and it was quite a relevant book for today, even though it was written in 2016. The issues still exist - even more so today!
