"This Is All I Got" offers an unflinching glimpse into the life of Camila, a young homeless single mother striving for stability and shelter amidst the stark inequalities of New York City. Author Lauren Sandler chronicles a year from the birth of Camila's child to his first birthday, delving into the harrowing challenges she faces, from poverty to a deficient social support system. Sandler not only tells a story of remarkable resilience and fortitude but also questions the disconnect between the reporter and her subject. This book stands as both a deeply reported narrative and a compelling call for systemic change.
