Started off interesting but got rather dry after, took weeks to finish it. Some good points mentioned in there about inequality, some parts were heartbreaking - the myriad of ways people struggling from paycheque to paycheque use to survive. Made me sad, made me stop and reflect.

Wspaniały reportaż, który rozbudził we mnie głód poznania innych książek z tego gatunku. 100% klimatu Ameryki, a także sporo wzruszenia.

This took me a little while to get into, but I grew to love the spunky real-life characters of the "houseless" - permanent dwellers in RVs or vans. I could never imagine doing this and it makes me sad that our economy is so screwed up that a large class of people literally cannot afford to retire after a lifetime of hard work, but I admire the "make lemonade out of lemons" attitude of this tribe as well as the dogged perseverance of the author in following this story for many years..
