This was an amazing book that uses journalism to brilliantly describe the sad story of the downward spiral of America and in particular the middle class through the accounts and experiences of a group of Americans experiencing the decline. The stories of these people begin about thirty years ago up and end in 2012. Reading this book in 2017 provides some perspective on the recent election especially since the struggles and frustrations expressed in the book have continued since it's publication in 2013 and have resulted in the recent election.
