Anyone else read this book? I just finished it a couple days ago. I picked it up without knowing what it was about besides the location. Mexico fascinates me, and this book portrays the country in all its strangeness and wonder very well.
I have a strange longing for treasure, that I might bury it for my future offspring and live joyously knowing it's mine, so this novel really gripped my attention. The book shows also the worth of labor, and I didn't mind all the commie stuff Traven spewed. I think this is a very unique story.
In a way, it reminded me of Breaking Bad, but I can't quite place how. I'm interested in seeing what others have to say about it
