But when bad investments crater their bank account, it all comes down to Araceli: their somewhat prickly Mexican maid. One night, an argument between the couple turns physical, and a misunderstanding leaves the children in Araceli's care. Their parents unreachable, she takes them to central Los Angeles in the hopes of finding Scott's estranged Mexican father---an earnest quest that soon becomes a colossal misadventure, with consequences that ripple through every strata of the sprawling city. Héctor Tobar's \u003ci\u003eThe Barbarian Nurseries\u003c\/i\u003e is a masterful tale of contemporary Los Angeles, a novel as alive as the city itself.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Picador","offers":[{"title":"Barbarian Nurseries | Héctor Tobar | Paperback | 9781250013798 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1629751","offer_id":50701482557698,"sku":"1629751","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/81ND4MymZzL.jpg?v=1791608984","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/barbarian-nurseries","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
