Thank you for your time @tcboyle! These were some good times. @DrAmyParish

He's too young and good-looking, methinks.

@Giselle070905 @SofiaCo1234 @tcboyle agreed.

@alex_randall223 @suzmicleff @tcboyle Bogart looks like he would take a dump on your bed

@tcboyle What happens to Candido, America, and Delaney!? You have to let us know!!! #noonelikesagoodcliffhanger.

[cl2405 @cl24058]

@JialinLi2023 @boyleluvr @tcboyle Good thinking!

[cl2405 @cl24058]

@tcboyle Yes, I have! Beautiful hiking spot that I used to frequent with my dad ❤️

[T.C. Boyle @tcboyle]

I liken him to Joe Christmas of Faulkner's "Light In August." Plus, the setting is relatively small here. Have you been to Topanga Canyon?

[cl2405 @cl24058]

Tortilla Curtain made me feel an array of emotions, hopelessness being one of them. But above all, it made me feel grateful. Grateful for every little thing that I take for granted every single day. Thank you, @tcboyle❤️ #Gratitude @DrAmyParish

When America's pee was burning & she couldn't understand why, how badly I wanted to jump through the pages & help her. No woman should have to go through something as difficult as pregnancy alone. @tcboyle you successfully expressed the loneliness of womanhood❤️ #WomenNeedWomen

[cl2405 @cl24058]

The first time I achieved an understanding of the American Dream was when I read The Great Gatsby. In every book I have read since then, The American Dream has been represented in one distinct way, as a facade. #IsTheAmericanDreamAFacade? @tcboyle

[cl2405 @cl24058]

When Candido and America sat by their fire roasting their turkey emerging themselves in the "American culture" and were pushed away from their campsite by ferocious flames, there was no better allusion to the facade of the "American Dream". #SettingFireToTheAmericanDream @tcboyle

[cl2405 @cl24058]

TORTILLA CURTAIN HAD SO MANY UNRESOLVED MYSTERIES. What happened to Jose, will he come back for his revenge? Who stole Delaney's car? Will Kyra & Delaney's passionless marriage last? They have given me an example of what I don't want in a marriage.😂 @tcboyle #TheThrillIsGone

[cl2405 @cl24058]

I know you are an environmentalist @tcboyle, and thus, I must ask you this. If you were on a nature hike like Delaney was, and you saw trash and camping bags in the canyon (I have attached how the scene looks below), what would your response be? #PeopleVsNature #PeopleOrNature

[cl2405 @cl24058]

While reading the scene where the hills filled with rain from the storm, my mind filled with images from the recent Santa Barbara mudslides. Your book, though released in 1995, demonstrates that SoCal weather is always unpredictable & ever-changing. @tcboyle #SocalEnviornment

@JialinLi2023 @tcboyle Yas Jialin! I'm there! Let me know the time and place girl let's get lunch!

[Jialin Li @JialinLi2023]

@tcboyle Now that I have finished The Tortilla Curtain, it’s time to eat its words and go out for a tortilla. Anyone for turkey tortillas? #TurkeyTortillas

@kr111456 @DrAmyParish Beautiful image🙌
