Reviews"A searing trip into the heart of homelessness." -Chicago Sun-Times "A searing indictment of a society that has largely chosen to look the other way...One would need a heart of stone not to be moved." -New York Times "Jonathan's struggle is noble. What he says must be heard. His outcry must shake our nation out of its guilty indifference." -Elie Wiesel "Among the many virtues of Jonathan Kozol's strong and often beautiful books is that we cannot forget for even an instant that the poor are our own kind and live but a moment away." -The Nation "I haven't experienced the same kind of shock over a book since the first time I read John Steinbeck'sThe Grapes of Wrath." -Chicago Tribune "At a time when Americans are struggling to see through the political, racial, and economic walls that separate them, Jonathan Kozol comes along with a window. Like an Old Testament patriarch, he rages at what he calls the greed and 'theological evil' of our time." -USA Today

Synopsis"Extraordinarily affecting....A very important book....To read and remember the stories in this book, to take them to heart, is to be called as a witness." THE BOSTON GLOBE There is no safety net for the millions of heartbroken refugees from the American Dream, scattered helplessly in any city you can name. RACHEL AND HER CHILDREN is an unforgettable record for humanity, of the desperate voices of the men, women, and especially children, and their hourly struggle for survival, homeless in America.
