Evicted – Winner of 2017 Pulitzer Prize by Matthew Desmond

“Monumental and vivid . . . Matthew Desmond spent years living among tenants in trailer parks and tumbledown houses in Milwaukee.  His narrative weaves together the stories of a handful of characters struggling, and often failing, to keep a roof over their heads.  Evicted demands attention.”  Ed Caesar, Sunday Times

“The most powerful book I read this year”  Rosamund Urwin, Evening Standard, Books of the Year

“Its characters are rendered in such high-resolution detail that their ghost images linger if you shut your eyes”  Jennifer Senior, The New York Times

“A compelling and damning exploration of the abuse of one of our basic human rights:  shelter”  Owen Jones

“I can’t remember when a study so deepened my understanding of American life.”  Katha Pollitt, Guardian
