Exploring the dehumanization of the plongeur, the narrative reveals how societal perceptions trap individuals in a cycle of labor and fear. It contrasts the views of educated individuals who misunderstand beggars, seeing them as fundamentally different and worthless, rather than recognizing their shared humanity. This work highlights the stigma surrounding beggars, positioning them as societal outcasts akin to criminals, and critiques the notion that only traditional laborers contribute meaningfully to society. The book invites readers to reconsider their assumptions about work and worth.
