A review by stephbrittoleal
Era uma vez um sonho: A história de uma família da classe operária e da crise da sociedade americana by J.D. Vance, Rita Süssekind
3.0
Hmmm, I guess that's okay. In the most Rocky Horror Picture Show's way of saying "he's okay".
It has a different point of view from what I did, but then again, I'm not USAmerican, things can be wildly different when you aren't born and raised somewhere. There are things very familiar to me, as a Latina, as Vance's relationship to his grandparents. There are things very ???? for me. And things I understood, but just didn't agree with.
So I guess it's a valid thing to read. It's not my usual type of reading, so it was a nice shift. Not watching the film anytime soon, also not rereading it ever. I'm relieved it's over, because it was some exhausting book.
