Delaney thinks of himself as progressive and liberal yet is content to give a seriously injured Cándido twenty dollars in exchange for just walking away rather than suing him in court. Back at the dealership , his salesman compares hitting a Mexican man to hitting a dog on the road . The racism is obvious.
where can i find this passage in the book?:)
