具体描述
Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America is a book written by Barbara Ehrenreich. Written from her perspective as an undercover journalist, it sets out to investigate the impact of the 1996 welfare reform act on the working poor in the United States.
The events related in the book took place between spring 1998 and summer 2000. The book was first published in 2001 by Metropolitan Books. An earlier version appeared as an article in the January 1999 issue of Harper's magazine. Ehrenreich later wrote a companion book, Bait and Switch (published September 2005), which discusses her attempt to find a white-collar job.
作者简介
Barbara Ehrenreich is an American writer and political activist who describes herself as "a myth buster by trade", and has been called "a veteran muckraker" by The New Yorker.During the 1980s and early 1990s she was a prominent figure in the Democratic Socialists of America. She is a widely read and award-winning columnist and essayist, and author of 21 books. Ehrenreich is perhaps best known for her 2001 book Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. A memoir of Ehrenreich's three-month experiment surviving on minimum wage as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart clerk, it was described by Newsweek magazine as "jarring" and "full of riveting grit",and by The New Yorker as an "exposé" putting "human flesh on the bones of such abstractions as 'living wage' and 'affordable housing'"

读后感
最近两三年，中文网络世界发生了一个明显的话语变化：穷人的形象从整体相对正面或至少是得到同情，几乎180度地转向负面——穷人，包括贫困地区、底层阶级，越来越明显成为批判与嘲讽的对象。在一开始，这种转变还多为个案性的叙述与道德评价（比如讲述一个贫穷的亲戚如何想方设...
评分看到豆瓣上的那些吐槽，怀疑真的读了这本书吗？ 让人拙计啊。 这说的主要是一个中产女作家，为了体验blue collar人民的生活，分别跑去了美国的三个地方，做角色体验：没有住所的单身母亲。 她必须找到工作，最低工资 必须找到住的地方，这个有点复杂，因为她会付更多的钱住MOTE...
评分书就是书名所说的，我在底层的生活。 “我”， 芭芭拉，美国畅销书作者，生活水平属于上游20%的人。有天在一个颇为奢华的法式乡村风饭店跟《哈泼》杂志的编辑讨论未来可以替他们写什么文章，当话题转到贫穷时，说了一句“实在应该有人去做一些老式的新闻调查工作，就是自己实...
评分不同于电视情景喜剧和好莱坞电影中的美国，另一个美国是一个被其自身忽视的隐密大陆。很少见诸报道的关于美国梦的真相就是，这个国家也存在着分布广泛、不断增长和不可避免的贫穷。在这个国家中，那些做着基础工作的人们，只能拿到低于生存标准的薪资。 芭芭拉•艾伦瑞克潜...
评分先得说一句，这本书不知道是否是翻译的原因，言语不够流畅，而作者的原文，絮絮叨叨的废话也太多，但是这本书我依然推荐大家一读。 美国专栏作家芭芭拉·艾伦瑞克在1998年，为了体验底层美国人民的生活，选择了六个地方，在不同的城市去打工。 为了确保她能真实体验当地底层...

interesting to read
评分看不下去
评分前几章看的中文，后来国内还没出译文版看了两章英文版（在缅因当清洁工前），剩下的部分拖到前两年去听作者讲座时都没看完。。。直到这几天开长途才听完。书很好，将近二十年前的对美国底层人民的人类学观察。但不推荐audible，声音单调得让人昏昏欲睡，不是旅途良伴。
评分有时候就碰上这样突发奇想的人，也真没办法。实在够狠。
评分We are so used to social status we reside and hence lose the view of the whole picture. The rich does not understand the middle class. Middle class does not understand the working class. The working class does not understand the poor. It is so hard to move between the classes even if you try, try, and try.
