I need a stealth selection for my book club - [View all]

we have some members who have drunk deeply of the Fox kool-aid and are convinced people on welfare are middle class - after all, they have cell phones and cable TV, don't they?

I was thinking of Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America by Barbara Ehrenreich, but that may be too obvious.

Any suggestions?

Cross-posted from non-fiction - it occurred to me that there may be a good novel out there that will get the message across!
