Poverty Safari: Understanding the Anger of Britain's Underclass

Poverty Safari is a groundbreaking book that takes readers on an unflinching journey into the heart of extreme poverty in modern Britain, the US, and around the world.

With razor-sharp insight and brutal honesty, author Darren McGarvey sheds light on the pressures and legacies of poverty, revealing how both the political left and right misunderstand this complex issue.

Through a unique blend of memoir and polemic, Poverty Safari offers unforgettable insight into the conditions that led to Brexit and beyond, including inequality, tribalism, cultural anxiety, identity politics, the poverty industry, and the resentment, anger, and feelings of exclusion and being left behind that have fueled right-wing populism and the rise of ethno-nationalism.

This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the root causes of these pressing social issues and how to address them effectively.
