The novel’s narrator, an auto parts stocker and driver unable to quit his job out of a sense of obligation to his family, seeks out the written word as a means to escape, which contrasts sharply with the pelado environment where he works and allows for a closer inspection of the pelado archetype inside the walls of the warehouse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Texas Review Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47018750836976,"sku":"9781680031379","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781680031379_p0.jpg?v=1763688130","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781680031379","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
