Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City [Paperback]

Overview

**A 2017 OWL AWARD SHORTLIST WINNER**

Take a peek into one of the most urgent issues facing America today: extreme poverty and economic exploitation. Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City tells the story of eight families in the poorest neighborhoods of Milwaukee as they struggle to keep a roof over their heads.

Author Matthew Desmond moved into one of these neighborhoods at the height of the recession and immersed himself in the lives of the people surrounding him to truly understand what the housing crisis looks like. Based on years of his fieldwork and the collected data, this novel transforms our understanding of poverty and economic exploitation while providing fresh ideas for solving one of America’s most devastating problems. Scenes of hope and loss remind the reader of the importance of a home, with which our lives are entirely dependent on.
