In The Address Book, Deirdre Mask looks at how street addresses were not created to help you find your way, but to find you. In many parts of the world, your address can reveal your race and class.
“An entertaining quest to trace the origins and implications of the names of the roads on which we reside … The Address Book is [Mask's] first book, and she is already a master at shoehorning in fascinating yet barely germane detours just for kicks … Mask populates her daunting inquiries with a cast of stirring meddlers whose curiosity, outrage and ambition inspire them to confront problems ignored by indifferent bureaucracies,” says Sarah Vowell of The New York Times Book Review.
The Address Book is a finalist for the 2020 Kirkus Prize for Nonfiction. Here are some other Kirkus Prize Nonfiction finalists this year:
- A Furious Sky: The Five-Hundred-Year History of America’s Hurricanes by Eric Jay Dolin
