The brief wondrous life of Oscar Wao / Junot Diaz.
Things have never been easy for Oscar, a sweet but disastrously overweight, lovesick Dominican ghetto nerd. From his home in New Jersey, where he lives with his old-world mother and rebellious sister, Oscar dreams of ecoming the Dominican J.R.R. Tolkien and , most of all, of finding love. But he may never get what he wants, thanks to the Fukoe-the curse that has haunted Oscar's family for generations.
