Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive by Stephanie Land

4.0

A must-read for people who have never had to worry about finding the money to pay for rent or food. However, as related by Land, many who are mired in poverty will never be able to get out of their financial situation. Therefore, readers must remember not to view Land's life as an example of the workings of the American Dream, but instead as an example of the many ways that the government, economy, and income inequality force people further and further into poverty.
