I just finished it and this book has me perplexed. I liked the story and the characters were interesting, but I don't know what the meaning of the book is, if there is one. I kept waiting for the ending to bring everything together but it didn't do that at all. I thought it was a decent read but don't think I'd ever read it again. Butch, what do you think the meaning of this book is?

I just found out via Wikipedia that Yunior is the protagonist in Diaz's first book called Drown.
