One of the best reads I've had... J.D. Vance has 'opened' the eyes of the reader into his childhood of growing up as a Kentucky hillbilly, the struggles and challenges that this culture faces in America.
Vance writes with a depth that keeps the reader turning page after page, wanting to learn more about this culture of people in America, the challenges and obstacles that these people encounter daily. Vance is one of the few in his culture that overcomes the many crisis' in his life; he is driven to overcome that which has held him captive for many years. Vance arises above the disadvantages and struggles of his childhood, to that of a lawyer, one who has seen both sides of two cultures.
An excellent read.
