Fruit of the Drunken Tree: A Novel by Ingrid Rojas Contreras
 
Informative, Insightful, Interesting

This book was very interesting since it reveals the impact of the Narco Trade in Colombia under the years of instability created by Pablo Escobar. Although most adults can imagine the daily terror Colombian’s suffered, this book is very particular since the story is revealed through the eyes of three young girls that live very different lives -one of them from a poor ghetto and two sisters from a middle class family. Part of the story drags slowly along a few chapters, and perhaps could have been summarized a little more. The end of the book was very impactful, allowing the reader to experience all the pain and emotions that accompanies terror victims even after years of leading a normal and stable life.
