More Description Pushed to a Corner is a timely, inspirational memoir based on an 18-month-period during which Stephanie Thomas reaches out to the women panhandling on the street corners of her town Greensboro, NC. She goes to learn their stories, to find the reason behind their plight, and she goes hoping to make a difference. As Stephanie is on her quest to find the truth, she experiences what life is like for women living on the margins and begging on the street. As she faces a world of both the innocent, and the violent criminals and drug addicts, Stephanie soon realizes she won't be able to continue unless she reaches out for help. Stephanie's journey into this previously unknown society completely changes her perspective on homelessness, panhandlers, and life in general, and Stephanie's friendship with the women she comes to know has a profound effect on them.
