Summary of Richard Grant's Dispatches from Pluto
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 I met with Mike and his wife, Beth, who kindly offered to lend me the money to buy their house. I was grateful for the offer, but the American mortgage industry was acting sober and averse to low-level risks like me.
#2 I bought a house in Mississippi, and it was so easy that I was suspicious. Everyone was incredibly kind and helpful, and I had the sensation of hovering above myself as I signed 18 different legal documents.
#3 I had bought a house down near Yazoo City. I was moving in, and the man across the street told me the story of Emmett Till, a white boy who had been killed in Money in 1955. He had no sympathy for the boy whatsoever.
#4 I had a very different experience being a resident of Mississippi than a visitor. I realized that I couldn't just write off the people of Money as racist, because they had suffered from racial violence and injustice for far longer than I had been alive.
