Very much so. Very, very much so. There are passages, almost entire paragraphs, that you could lift from the book and you wouldn't be able to tell (minus one or two references) if they had been written then or now, particularly re: white (and, particularly, white male) anger, frustration, and resentment (regardless of how you view that) and the political capitalization of that by conservative political power.
