Story
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

The humbleness and authenticity of how JD overcame his difficult situations throughout his young life. It was very inspirational and presents much encouragement for other to soar beyond their life’s circumstances.

Jen combines common sense and humor to get her excellent points across. I listen to this periodically when I need a kick in the pants, and glean something new from it each time.

Story
Inspired by a true story, the best-selling author of In Country offers a gorgeous, haunting novel about an airline pilot coming to terms with his past, and searching for the people who saved him during World War II. After Marshall Stone's B-17 bomber was shot down in occupied Europe in 1944, people in the French Resistance helped him escape to safety.

This presents the trials and tribulations of those deeply embedded in WWII in France from several different perspectives in such a personal way. It was outstandingly written and performed!
