Title: Cruz has made me a patriot
Review: Hapless, dour Arkady views his surroundings with a critical eye, as we might should we be unlucky enough to find ourselves in present day Cuba, Russia, or Chernobyl. Though I've never been to any of these places, through Cruz's apt descriptions I've experienced them all right along side Arkday; at once appalled, wary, depressed, and wanting justice. Chernobyl is brought to life from the still smoldering ashes, and like Arkady, Cruz wastes few words in developing the story and characters. If you enjoyed Gorky Park you won't be disappointed in Wolves Eat Dogs. Cruz's books would give spark to a social studies curriculum for listless students.
