5.0 out of 5 stars This is an excellent book about "lower-class" families., Aug 23 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Hidden Injuries Of Class (Paperback)

This superb book puts a human face on those living and working at or near the economic bottom of our society. It describes in detail the emotional and personal ramifications of working in jobs that are looked down upon and stereotyped, as well as how family relationships are complicated by a parent's subordinate position and their desire and sacrifices for a child's success. It is easy-to-read and carries a profound message.
