""This is a vital book, deeply personal and charged with the kind of wisdom and solidarity that only belongs to those who understand what it feels like to be overlooked and left behind."" ""An unprecedented reckoning with class and poverty as it relates to creative life in the modern age. Cruz forges a merciful new footing to state what's long overdue: that many of us have been dying while we write, and that the sorrow of surviving poverty, if at all, is a grief finally named in this courageous and deeply true work.""
