As a struggling single mum, determined to keep a roof over her daughter's head, Stephanie Land worked for years as a maid, working long hours in order to provide for her small family. In Maid, she reveals the dark truth of what it takes to survive and thrive in today's inequitable society. As she worked hard to climb her way out of poverty as a single parent, scrubbing the toilets of the wealthy, navigating domestic labour jobs as a cleaner whilst also juggling higher education, assisted housing, and a tangled web of government assistance, Stephanie wrote. She wrote the true stories that weren't being told. The stories of the overworked and underpaid.    

When Stephanie Land set out to write her memoir Maid, she never could have imagined what was to come. Handpicked by President Barack Obama as one of the best books of 2019, it was called “an eye-opening journey into the lives of the working poor” (People). Later it was adapted into the hit Netflix series Maid, which was viewed by 67 million households and was Netflix’s fourth most-watched show in 2021, garnering three Primetime Emmy Award nominations. Stephanie’s escape out of poverty and abuse in search of a better life inspired millions.

Il libro che ha ispirato la serie evento "Maid", in onda su Netflix da ottobre 2021. Per una serie di scelte sbagliate Stephanie Land, diventata madre da poco e costretta a fuggire da un compagno violento, precipita in uno stato di povertà assoluta. Mentre lavora duramente per tirare avanti, pulendo i gabinetti dei ricchi, destreggiandosi tra una serie di lavori domestici malpagati, lo studio e il complicatissimo mondo dell'assistenza governativa, Stephanie scrive. E scrive le storie non dette degli americani sovraccarichi di lavoro e sottopagati.
