Title: UGH!
Review: Dubus is for the most part a great storyteller but has redefined the term "fiction" with this storyline! With the unrealistic plot of a former druggie's house being sold as a result of an error in clerical work, he forces the reader to feel nearly nothing towards his protagonist, "Kath" and the supposed antagonists, this innocent Middle Eastern family who uses the opportunity of purchasing the "seized" house to better their lives in the States. The "book" begins to run like a made for TV movie with its lame and depressing ending! New definition for UGH!
