One of the best books I've read all year!
After many years of reporting and writing, the day is finally here: THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out today.
I poured everything into this book, and I hope it ignites outrage at the fact that so many people in the richest nation on earth have been deprived of one of the most basic human necessities.

Electricity prices are rising everywhere, with some experts referring to them as the "new eggs" in the cost of living crisis.
