TIGHTROPE by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn
In celebration of their fiftieth anniversary, Powell’s included TIGHTROPE by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as one of its “50 Books for 50 Years,” a list of books that “not only show us who we have been as a country and a species and where we are going, but the power of the right words, at the right time, to act as a mirror and a beacon.” Powell’s praises TIGHTROPE for “ris[ing] above the pack with its compassionate portrayal of its subjects, careful research, intersectional analysis, and thoughtful policy solutions.” Knopf published the book on January 14, 2020.
