为什么值得读

  • 深刻展现驱逐对社区的破坏与生活的摧毁
  • 揭露贫民窟房东掠夺残酷的商业运作
  • 以解释性叙事客观记录而不过度评判

Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City 是美国作家 Matthew Desmond 于2016年出版的非虚构书籍。本书以威斯康星州密尔沃基最贫困的地区为背景,记录了八个家庭在2007—2008年金融危机期间艰难向房东支付房租的故事。通过为期一年的民族志田野调查,Desmond 旨在书中凸显美国的极端贫困、经济适用房以及经济剥削问题。Evicted 广受好评,斩获多项图书大奖,包括2017年的 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction 以及 Robert F. Kennedy

  • 驱逐租客会破坏社区稳定,毁掉人们的生活。马修·德斯蒙德写的《扫地出门》是讲这个主题的神作。那些黑心房东搞出的掠夺性、荒谬、冷血又下作的商业手段简直让人火冒三丈,而且让人吃惊的是,这种现象其实是近些年才…

    Evictions destabilize neighborhoods and ruin lives. Evicted by Matthew Desmond is a great book on this issue. It is infuriating some of the predatory, senseless, ruthless, scumbag business practices that slum lords use and crazy to discover that this is a recent…

  • …让赤贫群体勉强活下去,诸如此类。但贫困问题依旧如故。它就在那儿,根深蒂固、完好无损。美国社会对贫困问题的鸵鸟心态真的很让人沮丧。顺便提一句,我觉得马特·德斯蒙德写的《扫地出门》这本书见解极为深刻。贫困产业复合体(Poverty Industrial Complex)真是一股强大的力量。http://www.evictedbook.com/

    …keep the poverty stricken alive. Etc. But poverty remains the same. It's there. Alive and well. The level of denial about poverty in the USA is very disheartening. As a side note. I found the book "Evicted" by Matt Desmond to be extremely insightful. The Poverty Industrial Complex is a powerful force. http://www.evictedbook.com/

  • 对《人类简史》不太感冒。太科普风了,通篇充斥着作者自己的主观观点,还有对 AI、自动化那些天马行空的预测。我今年读的另一本书是马修·德斯蒙德的《扫地出门》。它把与住房相关的贫困恶性循环写得极其精彩。

    Didn't care for Sapiens. Very pop-science with the author's opinion littered throughout alongside wild predictions on AI, automation. The only other book I read this year was Evicted by Matthew Desmond. It was an excellent account of poverty cycles as it relates to housing.

  • …跟访受访者好几年,而且用那种 HN 读者似乎很买账的解释性风格(不预设立场做道德审判,也不去刻意开脱)把他们的故事讲得极为出色。https://www.amazon.com/Evicted-Poverty-Profit-American-City/...(这本书的节选在这里:http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/02/08/forced-out)
