About
Summary
Life in Modern America brings the readers on a trip to the ordinary scenery that defines the United States in the present day. It is written in the key of a reporter, with graphic scenes around the nation--a diner in Chicago at dawn, backyard barbecue in Phoenix, emergency ward in Houston, main street in West Virginia.
The book tells human stories in seven chapters which are interspersed with keen observation to reveal how ambition, struggle, and resilience co-exist in contemporary America.
