		Jeff Libman's An Immigrant Class is an invaluable contribution to understanding the contemporary immigrant experience. He's given us a porthole through which we can view the stories of newcomers to this country, and does so in as pure and unfettered a way as possible: in their own words. Alex Kotlowitz, Author
