Original titleLife for Me Ain't Been No Crystal Stair: One Family's Passage Through the Child Welfare System
With the same acute observation, humor, and compassion she brought to her Pulitzer Prize-winning Is There No Place on Earth for Me?. Sheehan tells the story of one family's passage through the child-welfare system. A searing account of poverty, addiction, and abuse which poses inescapable questions about our society.
