Description
This is a dazzling and perceptive look at the United States between hope and despair: an election-year kaleidoscope. Timed to come out immediately after the November 2008 election in the US, it offers a series of memorable snapshots of America in fascinating flux: Bush's last days in office; sub-prime meltdowns; markets, trust and community; the fate of Hillary and the meaning of Obama.
