Your heart is a muscle the size of a fist : a novel / Sunil Yapa.
One Morning, young Victor sets out to sell as much marijuana as possible to the protestors camped outside the Washington State Convention and Trace Center. It quickly becomes clear that the history-making 50,000 anti-globalization protesters - from anarchists to environmentalists to teamsters - are testing the patience of the police, foremost among them Chief Bishop, the father Victor hasn't seen in five years. Over this life-altering afternoon, Yapa brilliantly interweaves the lives of seven people: Victor, his father, two officers in the street, two protest organizers struggling to do the right thing, and the WTO delegate from Sri Lanka, whose job, and his country's fate, depends on closing a deal.
