No book has won more raves this year than Katherine Boo’s nonfiction portrait of a Mumbai slum. A stunning work of journalism, “Behind the Beautiful Forevers” takes us into the heart of a squatters' settlement where the main economy is trash picking.  In this NEW and UNCUT interview, Steve Paulson talks with Boo about the daily struggles of people living in the slum, and the ethical dilemmas for an American journalist who writes about the dispossessed.
