Karol Nielsen's Raising the Price of the House is a life story that moves from growing up as the daughter of a Vietnam veteran who served in combat with the 101st Airborne Division through working as a journalist covering post-dirty war Argentina on the verge of a coup, the intifada and Gulf War in Israel, the peak of violent crime in New York City, and other beats. Along the way, she falls in and out of love, begins to teach creative writing, and ultimately becomes a poet and memoirist-forever embracing possibility.¿
