You traced your meal from Iowa cornfield to dinner plate, confronting the corporate grotesqueries behind every bite. Now trace your T-shirt from Texas cotton to Chinese factory floor, where Pietra Rivoli's forensic investigation exposes globalization's absurdities with the same righteous intellect and narrative swagger. This is The Omnivore's Dilemma for everything you wear—a journey through supply chains that reveals how ethical consumption collides with economic realities you thought you understood.
Rivoli delivers the eccentric farmers, villainous middlemen, and gritty sweatshop truths you crave, all wrapped in folksy philosophy that transforms cotton into a profound anti-capitalist parable. Your wardrobe has never felt this urgent.
