Maid is showing up on almost every best of, must read, don’t miss list of 2019.

We are so fortunate to have author Stephanie Land coming to Wilton Library to discuss this important, timely and unforgettable memoir–a beautiful and gritty exploration of poverty in America.

In Maid, she reveals the dark truth of what it takes to survive and thrive in today’s inequitable society.
