Chronicling struggles of Italy's poor

ROME, ITALY - Ten months ago, Giampiero Beltotto started writing down what his friends said they were most worried about. They were struggling. They could barely make ends meet. They were part of an Italian middle class "at their limit," he said.
Beltotto compiled their stories and others in a book that offered an intriguing look at Italy in 2007, a year in which writers and bloggers plumbed the inequities and political rot found in one of Europe's most beautiful countries. "I Nuovi Poveri" or "The New Poor," details the uncertainties of an increasingly marginalized class, the people who should make up the bedrock of democracy.
