The Devil’s Highway by Luis Alberto Urrea

Luis Urrea’s beautifully written account of a group of men attempting to cross the Mexican border into the desert of southern Arizona became a national bestseller, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, a book of the year, and a work proclaimed as a modern American classic.

Their odyssey traverses one of the deadliest regions in the world, called the "Devil's Highway". This far less visible aspect of US southern border immigration comes alive in this haunting tale.

The Devil’s Highway by Luis Alberto Urrea is available in all formats at public libraries and bookstores. (235 pp)
