Anyone who wants to understand the tragedy of modern-day Mexico and America's complicity in the Mexican drug wars will want to read Mariguano, a novel that recalls classic crime narratives such as Nicholas Pileggi's Wiseguys or William S. Burroughs's Junky but also reads like the work of the best Mexican and Latin American novelists such as Carlos Fuentes and Gabriel García Márquez.
