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).

In Class, Land takes us with her as she finishes college and pursues her writing career. Facing barriers at every turn including a byzantine loan system, not having enough money for food, navigating the judgments of professors and fellow students who didnt understand the demands of attending college while under the poverty line-Land finds a way to survive once again, finally graduating in her mid-thirties.Class paints an intimate and heartbreaking portrait of motherhood as it converges and often conflicts with personal desire and professional ambition. Who has the right to create art? Who has the right to go to college? And what kind of work is valued in our culture? In clear, candid, and moving prose, Class grapples with these questions, offering a searing indictment of Americas educational system and an inspiring testimony of a mothers triumph against all odds.
