Book Synopsis
This personal and provocative look at poverty in America is shaped around the author''s own engaging stories, song lyrics, and poems, including the well-known Call Me Child of God ... Not Those People. The story of her growing up in a large Irish Catholic working-class family in Minneapolis, Minnesota, draws together the experiences of living in poverty, the role of the church and music in her life, and the many remarkable people who populated her life and the lives of her family.The author describes economic hardship and social challenges as being as regular as the turning seasons in my coming up years, and refers to her life in poverty as the soil of my art. Through her stories and reflections, Julia Dinsmore puts a face on poverty and challenges readers to answer God''s call to respond to poverty and its effects.
