2 00 a Day by Edin and Shaefer Book Response

In preparation for this paper, you will read the book: 9 Edin, Kathryn J. and H. Luke Shaefer. 2015. $2.00 a Day: Living on Almost Nothing in America. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. ISBN: 9780544303188. 

After you have read this book, you will write a response to it that is between 700 and 800 words long including the title as well as any works cited or reference list that you may include. Your response should NOT be a summary of the book. Instead, I specifically want you to respond to these questions: How do the cultural contexts of the individuals in the book effect their experiences of poverty? How do their cultural backgrounds (such as gender, race/ethnicity, nationality, religion, education, geographic location, etc.) both contribute to as well as express their experiences of poverty?
