Alex Kotlowitz Review of Abandoned

One of the nation's foremost chroniclers of poverty, struggle and the failings of U.S. social policy is Alex Kotlowitz. His 1991 bestseller, There are No Children Here: The Story of Two Boys Growing Up in the Other America, was named one of the 20th century's most important books by the New York Public Library, and he has won awards across three mediums - print, film and radio. His achievements are a source of admiration, aspiration and inspiration for writers like me.

I'm extraordinarily honored by his review of my book, which you read here in the latest issue of Washington Monthly magazine: https://washingtonmonthly.com/magazin...
