Arabian Jazz by Diana Abu-Jaber

4.0

Beautifully written, and hilarious. The redneck neighbors are perhaps a little over the top, but that is hugely offset by the vividness of many of the main characters. There's a certain "Confederacy of Dunces" air to some of the comic scenes--but fortunately this book engages with meaty issues much more than CoD did.
