A review by allisonrosetortorici
Gentrifier: A Memoir by Anne Elizabeth Moore
1.0
DNF- pg. 48
The author’s writing style, little vignettes that seemingly have nothing to do with each other, made it very difficult to read this book. My expectation of this book as an enlightening portrayal of a person’s own hand in gentrification and the impacts of that, were not met in the least. The book followed no clear narrative and had no true discussion or perspective on the impacts of gentrification in Detroit.
