The Lower Class In Barbara Ehrenreich's Nickel And Dimed
The life of the lower class
Not being in the lower class is a privilege to the people who witness how difficult it is to live in those conditions and imagine what it would be like to live off of lower class jobs. Barbara Ehrenreich saw this and decided that she wanted to experience what it would be like and experience the hardship that they push through. Barbara discusses the difficulty of living in the lower class with the use of her first point of view/ honesty and her use of figurative language. In the novel, “Nickel and Dimed”, Barbara Ehrenreich uses a sarcastic, dramatic tone to support her argument that people who live in the lower class have a difficult time getting by with the present American economy.
