Title: A woman puts her money where her mouth is
Review: This is a true story of a woman who is curious and wants to the help the down and out. She does this in Britain, purely as a"regular citizen" and literally must be become one of the pospultation she wants to assit in order to do it. Thesae are the alcoholic and young people who are also squatters. She is determined to help, and spends alot of time with the people. Her middle class parents try their best to prevent her, but she does this work anyway. It is a truly fascinating story and well-written in great detail. I highly recommned this book to anyone. If nothing else it is a great read, but more than this it is a book in which you can come away with a greater appreciation of the struggling poor. Too, you can also learn an honest way of helping, which would engender trust on the part of the "recipients". Here, you begin to understand the boundary between "helper" and "helpee" are often extremely blurry.
