We're excited to announce our selection for 2018: Strangers In Their Own Land: Anger and Mourning of the American Right, written by renowned sociologist Arlie Russell Hochschild. A finalist for the 2016 National Book Award, the book aims to explain the worldview of supporters of the Tea Party movement in Louisiana. Our hope is this community read helps us all better understand why our politics are so deeply divided. We are fortunate and thrilled to add her name to our list of past esteemed authors.
