In "Stuart", Alexander Masters makes the homeless plight a true human condition. There is now a face and a name attached to the people of the streets. For myself, I will probably never see someone on the streets again without thinking about Stuart Shorter. Funny sometimes, tragic always, this book should be required reading for all people so that our culture might grow a heart that new, realistic programs may be developed to help these people that feel "irrelevant".
