Description: The National Book Award Finalist and New York Times bestseller that became a guide and balm for a country struggling to understand the election of Donald Trump" A generous but disconcerting look at the Tea Party . This is a smart respectful and compelling book." Jason De Parle The New York Times Book Review When Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election a bewildered nation turned to Strangers in Their Own Land to understand what Trump voters were thinking when they cast their ballots. Arlie Hochschild one of the most influential sociologists of her generation had spent the preceding five years immersed in the community around Lake Charles Louisiana a Tea Party stronghold. As Jedediah Purdy put it in the New Republic " Hochschild is fascinated by how people make sense of their lives . Her attentive detailed portraits reveal a gulf between Hochchild's 'strangers in their own land and a new elite." Already a favorite common read book in communities and on campuses across the country and called "humble and important" by David Brooks and "masterly" by Atul Gawande Hochschild's book has been lauded by Noam Chomsky New Orleans mayor Mitch Landrieu and countless others. The paperback edition features a new afterword by the author reflecting on the election of Donald Trump and the other events that have unfolded both in Louisiana and around the country since the hardcover edition was published and also includes a readers group guide at the back of the book.
