读后感
大一上专业课的时候，有位讲师貌似简略提起过这本书，所以在网上碰巧遇到时就下单购买了。具体是不是这本书我也不是很清楚，但即使不是，内容也是相似的，起码讨论的话题有交叠。 读书最忌囫囵吞枣，而合上书本以后，我陷入思考，不想“浪费”，于是写下此文记录自己不成熟的看...
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...
评分在中国，薪水多少算低，我不知道。因为仿佛自己从未拿过底薪（只有换工作停发薪水的时候）。但是我还是和那些低薪者共事过。大学毕业找工作，去麦当劳应聘储备经理，曾经和服务员一起劳动过三日。培训我的员工是个老员工，但也是服务员，是个中年妇女。因为带我一起做事，所以...

评分通勤時間聽完。
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.
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。
评分看到好多人打低分，认为作者的分析不够深刻。我反倒感觉有些作品本身的使命就不是解释问题的全部，而是将问题提出来为进一步的讨论奠定空间。此外，有时候会把评价学术作品和通俗作品的标准搞乱混。从这个角度看，我感觉这书还好啊~
