THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER Coming November 2020 as a major motion
picture from Netflix starring Amy Adams and Glenn Close 'The
political book of the year' Sunday Times 'A frank, unsentimental,
harrowing memoir ... A superb book' New York Post 'I bought this to
try to better understand Trump's appeal ... but the memoir is so
much more than that. A gripping, unputdownable page-turner' India
Knight, Evening Standard J. D. Vance grew up in the hills of
Kentucky. His family and friends were the people most of the world
calls rednecks, hillbillies or white trash. In this deeply moving
memoir, Vance tells the story of his family's demons and of America
' s problem with generational neglect. How his mother struggled
against, but never fully escaped, the legacies of abuse,
alcoholism, poverty and trauma. How his grandparents, 'dirt poor
and in love', gave everything for their children to chase the
American dream. How Vance beat the odds to graduate from Yale Law
School. And how America came to abandon and then condescend to its
white working classes, until they reached breaking point.
