it was truly a remarkable story and I really liked it and I just I think it really helped me kind of like grasp a perspective on kind of what's going on in the world politically and look what goes on in the United States all the time
Hillbilly Elegy (2016)
From a former marine and Yale Law School graduate, this book is a probing look at the struggles of America's white working class through the author's own story of growing up in a poor Rust Belt town. Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of poor, white Americans. The disintegration of this group, a process that has been slowly occurring now for over forty years, has been reported with growing frequency and alarm, but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside.
