RETURN TO SENDER.

Edition: Advance Reading Copy (trade paperback format. )

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, (2009.). First edition - After Tyler's father is injured in a tractor accident, his family is forced to hire migrant Mexican workers to help save their Vermont farm from foreclosure. A moving story, with no easy answers, inspired by Alvarez's own work with the increasing number of Mexican farm workers and their children in Vermont. The title of the book refers to the name given by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents (the ICE or "la migra") to their raids in 2006 - Operation Return to Sender. Unlike most ARCs, this advance issue has a very different cover than the design used on the dust jackets of the trade edition. Author's letter to the reader. 302 pp. ISBN: 0-375-858385.

Condition: Fine (a new copy.)
