We'll discuss Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City by Matthew Desmond. Copies for check-out are available at the second-floor Reference desk beginning September 13. Sign up, x 167. 

About the book: A Harvard sociologist examines how eviction is a formidable cause of poverty in America, revealing how millions are stuck in vicious cycles of disadvantage, reinforced by a dysfunctional legal system.
