In Strangers in Their Own Land, the renowned sociologist Arlie Hochschild embarks on a thought-provoking journey from her liberal hometown of Berkeley, California, deep into Louisiana bayou country - a stronghold of the conservative right. As she gets to know people who strongly oppose many of the ideas she famously champions, Hochschild nevertheless finds common ground and quickly warms to the people she meets.

I can't get past the narration
Revisado: 09-03-18
The snooty-sounding elocution of the narrator seems to play into all the stereotypes of an elite left. For me, the tone separates the narrator/author from the subjects she's trying so hard to connect with and is in direct tension with the intent of the book. I wonder if I could enjoy this with a different narrator, or by just reading it. Definitely not a book improved by listening on audible.
