I finished Two Caravans.
It's a novel about migrant workers and their quest to earn money & the exploitation of them. I really enjoyed the Ukrainian Tractor book & this follows some similar themes, but it's darker.
We follow a group of Ukrainians, Poles and Chinese through their exploits first picking strawberries, then working in a chicken farm (horrible), then working in a restaurant, then finally with new age protesters.
One of the main characters Irina is being pursued by an Eastern European gangster who wants to "make possibility" with her. As I said, it's quite dark, but it's also very funny in places. If you like the Ukrainian Tractor novel, you'll like this too. If you missed it, you missed a treat.
I've just started Night Watch.
