Hillbilly Elegy A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis J. D. Vance (James David Vance) - U.S.A. HarperCollins 2018 - 272tr. paperback, illustration 20cm
Vance, a former marine and Yale Law School graduate, provides an account of growing up in a poor Rust Belt town that offers a broader, probing look at the struggles of America's white working class. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over forty years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck. The Vance family story begins hopefully in postwar America...
