What Is to Be Done? Endings and Beginnings

The conclusion talks about the difficulties that the novel and cinema as forms have with representing poverty and the solutions to the kind of poverty represented. The Endo/Exo Writers Project, a digital humanities attempt to provide a database of works by writers within and outside poverty, offers some insights into the issue of representation. The author offers a “minifesto” of goals toward a viable approach to thinking and writing about poverty while also looking at the financial success of poornographic works compared to works by endo-writers.
