It was a very pleasant night of spring‚ and anyone would find it refreshing to take a breath of fresh air in such conditions. Therefore‚ it was completely reasonable to see two people

As I read ?By the Lake of Sleeping Children?‚ I find it monotonous playing in the same tune as Across the Wire. Both books have dealt with what life is like for those living on the Mexican side of the border living in poverty‚ unsanitary conditions and economic hardships.
