Iain Levison with French subtitles
Here's a nifty clip of Iain Levison discussing struggling in America. He reminds us that since 1980, Congress voted against raising the minimum wage 15 times while raising its own pay 5 times. (I'm sure many of you have experienced something similar within your own workplace.) If you prefer your dose of American reality in novel form, check out his How To Rob An Armored Car or Dog Eats Dog. Iain continues to live what he writes and is working outdoors this winter. Nice guy and good writer. Follow this link for L.U.S.K.'s own interview with Iain Levison.
