I'm looking for a book to help a student with this query: "To what extent does the depiction of the American dream in literature reflect and challenge the realities in the United States?" She has works that are older, but is now looking for something contemporary, published in the 21st Century. I thought of Ann Patchett or Amerian Dirt but I'd love to hear from this group, which has not yet let me down. Thanks all
