The Last Tortilla - Sergio Troncoso - Bog

Born of Mexican immigrants, raised in El Paso, and now living in New York City, Troncoso has a rare knack for celebrating life. Writing in a straightforward, light-handed style reminiscent of Grace Paley and Raymond Carver, he spins charming tales that reflect his experiences in two worlds. Beginning with Troncoso's widely acclaimed story "Angie Luna", the tale of a feverish love affair in which a young man rediscovers his Mexican heritage and learns how much love can hurt, these stories form a richly textured tapestry that adds to our understanding of what it is to be human.
