Book Review of Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America

Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


A powerful snippet into the inescapable cycle of poverty. Enlightening, and certainly aimed at a white, upper-middle class, educated audience. The author makes profound discoveries while maintaining some distant ties to her privileged safety net.
