The reader holds the personal and honest testimony of a single mother.
Stephanie Land's book is an autobiographical novel that follows the fate of a young woman fleeing an abusive relationship. With her little one-year-old daughter, she initially lives in a homeless shelter, then lives in cheap, dilapidated apartments, and seeks security and financial independence by applying for countless state benefits. At first, his goal is just to survive, but he can only break free from the vicious cycle of perpetual work and bills if he raises his sights higher and realizes his old dream: he continues his education and becomes a writer.
Based on the book, Netflix also produced a very successful series.
