Junot Diaz is the man, man. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz.  What an amazing book.  A hilarious, harrowing, heartwarming account of the character Oscar de Leon (nicknamed Oscar Wao because of his resemblance to Oscar Wilde) and his Dominican family.  I knew nothing about the Dominican Republic before reading the book, or the horror that was the Truillo regime.  I loved the vulgarity.  I loved the nerdy sci-fi references that I got.  I loved the nerdy superhero references that I didn’t get.  This book is unlike anything I’ve ever read—a shining example of what the modern novel should be.
