Strangers in Their Own Land: Anger and Mourning on the American Right by Arlie Russell Hochschild

3.0

This book is a conversation starter more than anything else, and personally I think we need more of that in this day and age. The author definitely writes with her own bias, but I don't think the point of this book is to be unbiased but rather to show that you can have empathy for people even if you fundamentally disagree with them. I do think she limits her scope a bit too much and I don't necessarily agree with all of her perceptions or conclusions. The book is far from perfect, but it was still an interesting and worthwhile read.
