Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive
by Stephanie Land
Memoir of single mother working low wage cleaning jobs. It struck me that it seemed like all of these people hiring a cleaning service are living way out in the middle of nowhere. Not sure if that's how it really was, or if the author just made the houses seem isolated to illustrate her own isolation while cleaning them. Made me feel very lucky to not have to depend on my old car to get to work. Had some pretty good depictions of what its like to be stuck in poverty, and thus to be stuck in some really shitty housing. I know if I was living in some of the houses she lived in with her daughter, it would be too difficult to accept I was stuck there to try to make it seem like a home.
