Loving Pedro Infante

I enjoyed this book and found some similarities with the movie The Purple Rose of Cairo by Woody Allen. Life in a small town - with all the good and the bad - was depicted well in this book. I am going to rent a Pedro movie from NetFlix just to get a sense of the man who became such an icon. I wish I knew more Spanish so that the entire book was understandable but I think it is good to have the exeperience of being outside/in the dark as many do with English in their everyday lives.

From the descriptions I thought it would be quite humorous - it wasn't. There is a llot of Spanish interspersed throughout the book. I am comfortable with that, as I speak Spanish, but not all readers will appreciate it. All in all, I'd say it's an okay read.
