Stephanie Land’s new book is “Class: A Memoir of Motherhood, Hunger, and Higher Education.”
At the end of that book, Land took her 3-year-old daughter, Emilia, and moved away from an abusive partner in Washington State to Missoula, Mont., in pursuit of a college degree and a better life.. She was is in her mid-30s, on food stamps and borrowing massive amounts of money to get a B.A. in English.
Stephanie Land’s “Class: A Memoir of Motherhood, Hunger, and Higher Education” focuses on her senior year at the University of Montana. The school offered free daycare, but only during daytime classes, and not for the hours Land would spend on homework. So she got up at dawn to clean the gym at Emilia’s preschool in exchange for tuition.
“Babies don’t belong in grad school,” she said when Land confided she wanted to get a masters degree.
