Join Christine Lee as she delves into the compelling narrative of "Class" by Stephanie Land, the follow-up memoir to the acclaimed "Maid" which was turned into a hit Netflix series. In a riveting conversation with Annie Philbrick, the owner of Bank Square Books in Mystic, they explore the powerful themes threaded throughout this gripping story. Annie tells Christine, 'Class' is "told with brutal honesty. 'Class' is about a single mother, trying to live, and educate herself by raising a small child finding the complexities of navigating the system of assistance for those struggling to survive on just about nothing almost impossible."

"Class" chronicles Stephanie Land's journey beyond "Maid," continuing her story as she navigates college, pursuing her dreams, and confronting the harsh realities of being under the poverty line.
