Did you watch the Netflix drama MAID?
New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Land wrote about her life as a young mother escaping an abusive relationship who finds a job cleaning houses as she fights to provide for her child and build them a better future in Maid. In her latest memoir, Class, Land takes us with her as she finishes college and pursues her writing career. Facing barriers at every turn, including a byzantine loan system, not having enough money for food, and navigating the judgments of professors and fellow students who didn’t understand the demands of attending college while under the poverty line—Land finds a way to survive once again, finally graduating in her mid-thirties. Class paints an intimate and heartbreaking portrait of motherhood as it converges and often conflicts with personal desire and professional ambition. In clear, candid, and moving prose, Class offers a searing indictment of America’s educational system and an inspiring testimony of a mother’s triumph against all odds.
