It opened my eyes (3/3 people found this helpful)
A wonderful reflection of the diversity of dreams and realities of so many people. Terkel collects people from all walks of life and probes there dreams--what they are, what they were, how they've changed.
He engages them to tell there stories of success and failure, hardship and longing, understanding and transformation.
I never felt more in touch with the unique nature of America than when I was reading this book. I would recommend it to anyone.
