“Stephanie Land’s
Maid is a must-read of the highest order, a memoir of a single mother struggling to survive while performing the household labor that many of us take for granted. While at once deeply personal — you’ll fall hard for Stephanie and her daughter, Mia — it is also essential social commentary about how we treat the myriad domestic laborers who toil in our homes, oftentimes unseen and unappreciated. Read it alongside
Nickel and Dimed or
Evicted for a stunning, unforgettable look at American poverty and determination.”

“In a time when most in our country are falling further and further behind the ‘one percent,’
Maid tells the story of author Stephanie Land’s abrupt and unexpected slide from her middle-class upbringing to an impoverished adulthood as a single mother. As a first-person narrative window into the way increasing numbers of Americans are forced to live,
Maid will strike a chord with the readership of
Hillbilly Elegy and
White Trash.”
