In "The Tortilla Curtain" by T.C. Boyle, the titular "tortilla curtain" itself serves as a metaphor for the invisible barrier between social classes, highlighting the divide between the affluent and the impoverished. Another metaphor is the use of nature, particularly the wildfires, which symbolize the destructive forces of both environmental change and societal tensions. Additionally, the characters' struggles reflect the broader themes of migration and survival, illustrating the harsh realities faced by those on the margins of society. These metaphors collectively underscore the complexities of immigration and the human experience within a divided landscape.
