Description

The TV series Maid, created by an unlisted creator and produced by an unlisted studio, first premiered on January 22, 2019 in an unspecified country. The series spans 0 seasons with 0 episodes, featuring the voices of an unlisted voice cast. It follows the story of Publisher's Summary New York Times best seller "A single mother's personal, unflinching look at America's class divide, a description of the tightrope many families walk just to get by, and a reminder of the dignity of all work." (President Barack Obama, Obama's Summer Reading List)  At 28, Stephanie Land's dreams of attending a university and becoming a writer quickly dissolved when a summer fling turned into an unplanned pregnancy. Before long, she found herself a single mother, scraping by as a housekeeper to make ends meet. Maid is an emotionally raw, masterful account of Stephanie's years spent in service to upper-middle-class America as a "nameless ghost" who quietly shared in her clients' triumphs, tragedies, and deepest secrets. Driven to carve out a better life for her family, she cleaned by day and took online classes by night, writing relentlessly as she worked toward earning a college degree. She wrote of the true stories that weren't being told: of living on food stamps and WIC coupons, of government programs that barely provided housing, of aloof government employees who shamed her for receiving what little assistance she did. Above all else, she wrote about pursuing the myth of the American dream from the poverty line, all the while slashing through deep-rooted stigmas of the working poor.  Maid is Stephanie's story, but it's not hers alone. It is an inspiring testament to the courage, determination, and ultimate strength of the human spirit.  ©2019 Stephanie Land (P)2019 Hachette Audio. This is a Biographies & Memoirs series and has received a rating of 8.8/10 from 4,216 viewers.

You would think with all of the supposed struggles she overcame, she would have more enthusiasm reading her own story.I could not take the monotone narration and several of the personal accounts seems a little far fetched.

Full disclosure I did not finish this book. I found the author’s story to be filled with negative and complaining under tones. I listened to half of the story before I just had to stop. I am not into listening to a woman be a doormat and complain about it. As Oprah said, “people treat you the way you let them”. I have a feeling this story improves but I am not going to stick it out, I want to listen to something more entertaining.

I understand how hard it is to be a "single mother" . My husband died leaving me a 5 and 6 year old to raise alone. The author made some pretty bad decisions in her life. I find it hard to believe Washington state was so horrible. She clearly went to Montana to get her life on track. The book left me wondering if she was really such a wonderful mother and since she chose to be a single mother, she chose to be a single mother. What did she think her life was going to be like? Her daughter needed a mother, not a buddy. It sounded likeshe was never sure about that role.Having lived in the Pacific northwest, I don't imagine Montana as a "destination"for happiness.

I have greatly enjoyed the recent spate of memoirs about people born and raised working class such as Heartland and Hillybilly Elegy, which is why I was drawn to this book. There is no question the author had a rough life, but I found her lack of responsibility for her life choices to be a major problem and there's really little personal growth.

Stephanie Land is a hero that you can't stop hoping for, cheering for and begging for things to get better.This is the most inspiring book I have read in a long time.
