SUMMARY:Brown Bag Books - Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture
  in Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Brown Bag Books - Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Cul
 ture in Crisis  The January BBB book will be Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of 
 a Family and Culture in Crisis (non fiction) by J.D. Vance.\n\n“[Vance
 ’s] description of the culture he grew up in is essential reading for th
 is moment in history.” (David Books\, NYT) “A compassionate\, discerni
 ng sociological analysis ... Combining thoughtful inquiry with firsthand e
 xperience\, ... (he) has inadvertently provided a civilized reference guid
 e for an uncivilized election ...” (Jennifer Senior\, NYT) “... (it) i
 s a beautiful memoir but it is equally a work of cultural criticism about 
 white working-class America ... [Vance] offers a compelling explanation fo
 r why it’s so hard for someone who grew up the way he did to make it ...
  ” (WSJ) “... Vance’s memoir ... offers a starkly honest look at wha
 t that shattering of faith feels like for a family who lived through it.
 ” (The Economist)\n\nPlease join us on Tuesday\, January 2 at noon in th
