Nickel and dimed on (not) getting by in America

Ehrenreich, Barbara.
Restricted EAudiobook (NNELS) 2011

Nickel and Dimed is a modern classic that deftly portrays the plight of America's working-class poor. Author Barbara Ehrenreich decides to see if she can scratch out a comfortable living in blue-collar America. What she discovers is a culture of desperation, where workers often take multiple low-paying jobs just to keep a roof overhead.
