Nickel and Dimed 在线电子书 著者简介

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'"

She lives near Key West, Florida.

Nickel and Dimed 在线电子书 图书描述

Our sharpest and most original social critic goes "undercover" as an unskilled worker to reveal the dark side of American prosperity.

Millions of Americans work full time, year round, for poverty-level wages. In 1998, Barbara Ehrenreich decided to join them. She was inspired in part by the rhetoric surrounding welfare reform, which promised that a job -- any job -- can be the ticket to a better life. But how does anyone survive, let alone prosper, on $6 an hour? To find out, Ehrenreich left her home, took the cheapest lodgings she could find, and accepted whatever jobs she was offered. Moving from Florida to Maine to Minnesota, she worked as a waitress, a hotel maid, a cleaning woman, a nursing-home aide, and a Wal-Mart sales clerk. She lived in trailer parks and crumbling residential motels. Very quickly, she discovered that no job is truly "unskilled," that even the lowliest occupations require exhausting mental and muscular effort. She also learned that one job is not enough; you need at least two if you int to live indoors.

Nickel and Dimed reveals low-rent America in all its tenacity, anxiety, and surprising generosity -- a land of Big Boxes, fast food, and a thousand desperate stratagems for survival. Read it for the smoldering clarity of Ehrenreich's perspective and for a rare view of how "prosperity" looks from the bottom. You will never see anything -- from a motel bathroom to a restaurant meal -- in quite the same way again.

前阵知乎上曾讨论过“生活大爆炸”中Penny的收入能否真的让她过得比较滋润,当时有人引据各种美国的生活数据,证明她是可以过得还不错的。不久之后又看到这本亲历女服务员生活的书,才发现了阳光下的另一面。 《我在底层的生活》,也就是芭芭拉的《Nickel and Dimed》。在《社...

有意思,文中美元换成人民币就是前几年我在二线城市的收入和消费水平,简直一模一样! 10年我在沃尔玛工作,时薪是7.5元。一个月加满班230个小时(规定加班不能超过50小时好像),这样一个月扣去社保到手就只有1400元不到。离市区近的地方出租的小隔间(十平不到) 一个月房租 ...

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...
