A powerful novel about ethnically fluid California, "American Son" is the story of two Filipino brothers adrift in contemporary California. Their mother struggles to keep her sons in line while working two dead-end jobs. Full of the ache of being caught in a violent and alienating world, this novel captures the underbelly of the modern immigrant experience.
