Product Information

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE * NAMED ONE OF TIME 'S TEN BEST NONFICTION BOOKS OF THE DECADE * One of the most acclaimed books of our time, this modern classic "has set a new standard for reporting on poverty" (Barbara Ehrenreich, The New York Times Book Review ). In Evicted , Princeton sociologist and MacArthur "Genius" Matthew Desmond follows eight families in Milwaukee as they each struggle to keep a roof over their heads. Hailed as "wrenching and revelatory" ( The Nation ), "vivid and unsettling" ( New York Review of Books ), Evicted transforms our understanding of poverty and economic exploitation while providing fresh ideas for solving one of twenty-first-century America's most devastating problems. Its unforgettable scenes of hope and loss remind us of the centrality of home, without which nothing else is possible. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY President Barack Obama * The New York Times Book Review * The Boston Globe * The Washington Post * NPR * Entertainment Weekly * The New Yorker * Bloomberg * Esquire * BuzzFeed * Fortune * San Francisco Chronicle * Milwaukee Journal Sentinel * St. Louis Post-Dispatch * Politico * The Week * Chicago Public Library * BookPage * Kirkus Reviews * Library Journal * Publishers Weekly * Booklist * Shelf Awareness WINNER OF: The National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction * The PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Nonfiction * The Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction * The Hillman Prize for Book Journalism * The PEN/New England Award * The Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize FINALIST FOR THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE AND THE KIRKUS PRIZE " Evicted stands among the very best of the social justice books." --Ann Patchett, author of Bel Canto and Commonwealth "Gripping and moving--tragic, too." --Jesmyn Ward, author of Salvage the Bones " Evicted is that rare work that has something genuinely new to say about poverty." --San Francisco Chronicle

Reviews
"Astonishing... Desmond has set a new standard for reporting on poverty." --Barbara Ehrenreich, New York Times Book Review "After reading Evicted , you'll realize you cannot have a serious conversation about poverty without talking about housing. . . . The book is that good, and it's that unignorable."-- Jennifer Senior, New York Times Critics' Top Books of 2016 "This book gave me a better sense of what it is like to be very poor in this country than anything else I have read. . . . It is beautifully written, thought-provoking, and unforgettable." --Bill Gates "Inside my copy of his book, Mr. Desmond scribbled a note: 'home = life.' Too many in Washington don't understand that. We need a government that will partner with communities, from Appalachia to the suburbs to downtown Cleveland, to make hard work pay off for all these overlooked Americans." --Senator Sherrod Brown , Wall Street Journal "My God, what [ Evicted ] lays bare about American poverty. It is devastating and infuriating and a necessary read." --Roxane Gay , author of Bad Feminist and Difficult Women "Written with the vividness of a novel, [ Evicted ] offers a dark mirror of middle-class America's obsession with real estate, laying bare the workings of the low end of the market, where evictions have become just another part of an often lucrative business model." --Jennifer Schuessler, New York Times "In spare and penetrating prose . . . Desmond has made it impossible to consider poverty without grappling with the role of housing. This pick [as best book of 2016] was not close." --Carlos Lozada, Washington Post "An essential piece of reportage about poverty and profit in urban America." -- Geoff Dyer, The Guardian 's Best Holiday Reads 2016 "It doesn't happen every week (or every month, or even year), but every once in a while a book comes along that changes the national conversation. . . . Evicted looks to be one of those books." --Pamela Paul, editor of the New York Times Book Review "Should be required reading in an election year, or any other." --Entertainment Weekly "Powerful, monstrously effective . . . The power of this book abides in the indelible impression left by its stories." --Jill Leovy, The American Scholar "Gripping and important . . . [Desmond's] portraits are vivid and unsettling." --Jason DeParle, New York Review of Books "An exquisitely crafted, meticulously researched exploration of life on the margins, providing a voice to people who have been shamefully ignored--or, worse, demonized--by opinion makers over the course of decades." --The Boston Globe "[An] impressive work of scholarship . . . As Mr. Desmond points out, eviction has been neglected by urban sociologists, so his account fills a gap. His methodology is scrupulous." -- Wall Street Journal, "Astonishing... Desmond has set a new standard for reporting on poverty." --Barbara Ehrenreich, New York Times Book Review "After reading Evicted , you'll realize you cannot have a serious conversation about poverty without talking about housing. . . .

    A must read for those on both sides of the equation.

    Private property is a problem. The banks are the 'pushers". Dumping more regs onto this problem is just a band-aid that won't stop the accumulation of outrageously excessive wealth at the top. The question is how do we transition to something better and greater? And what will that look like?

    A compelling read that puts a human face on the housing problem in America.

    It's an eye-opening book that shows the complexity of the homeless problem in America The stories are moving, even heart wrenching, putting an emotional face on what is usually talked about as faceless statistics. I highly recommend this book.

    Evicted - out of homes.

    So very specific about the difficulty of living in inner city and putting up with landlords. And, also, what the landlords were contending with.

    Evicted

    Not a book that you could say was hard to put down. It was a bookclub book that was picked so felt bit was my obligation to read it. If this was not the case I would certainly not have finished it.
