I absolutely loved this book and the way in which it talked about the hardships the residents of Milwaukee face - especially those who are poverty stricken. This type of hardship is everywhere in America, especially more so than ever - with rising costs of living. This book and the stories in it are just a reminder that we are one hardship (disability, addiction, job-loss, and much more) from becoming displaced and having our record tarnished.

I look forward to reading more work by this author.
