ABANDONED. Book about distinct lifestyles within Mexican society. In each chapter, he'd talk about a different character: a maid, street performer, politician, rich kid, juera ("blonde"), farmer, etc.

Trying to find a book I read around 2001/2002, I believe the author was an American journalist. He wrote it while living in Mexico City. Possibly named Peter with last name starting with an "O". But I'm not 100% sure of his name.
