Stephanie Land, author of MAID, had a laser-focused goal to succeed as a writer, and this memoir proves that in spades. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss this story that details Land’s life on the edge of poverty while raising her daughter. Land’s presentation of her life, which included an abusive husband, an unpredictable father to her daughter, and financial challenges, would send anyone over the edge. It all got her down, but she never gave up, and she ultimately succeeded in graduating from college and getting her Master of Fine Arts. Fans of her previous work will be drawn to this memoir for its honesty, integrity, and candor.
