What are you reading for Oct. 11
Synopsis: This is the portrait of Americana through the lens of a foreign exchange student, sent here with a posse of other exchange students to perform something opaquely referred to as “Operation Havoc.” The title character settles in with a typical American family, who welcomes Pygmy with a too-large Jesus t-shirt, a promise to fatten him up and a grand claim to make him an American or die trying.
