Reviews

""Among the young men Dawson meets, many consider employment in the formal sector a defeat best avoided. She thus writes of 'the productivity of unemployment' because remaining outside of the formal economy involves ceaselessly inventive, creative work. Dawson's deep dive into moral lives on the urban margins is accomplished and rewarding and very often tugs against our intuitions.""-- ""Jonny Steinberg, Yale University""
