Description

In "Bone of the Bone," Sarah Smarsh brings her graceful storytelling and incisive critique to the challenges that define our times: class division, political fissures, gender inequality, environmental crisis, media bias, the rural-urban gulf. Smarsh, a journalist who grew up on a wheat farm in Kansas and was the first in her family to graduate from college, has long focused on cultural dissonance that many in her industry neglected until recently.
