About the book: 2019 / Stephanie is 28 years old and desperately trying to escape from her hometown to fulfill her dream: to go to university and become a writer. Her plans are interrupted by an unexpected pregnancy and a lawsuit with the child's father. From this day on, Stephanie is a poor and homeless single mother who can only rely on herself. No one, including her own parents, can help her. For several difficult years, Stephanie tries to provide a secure home for her daughter Mia, surviving on the crumbs that fall to her in the form of a few benefits and the pitifully low salary of a cleaning lady. In such a life there is no place for weekends, holidays with friends and spontaneous purchases - only poor health, the cheapest food, loneliness, panic attacks and constant fear for the future of your child. She learns not to give up, to appreciate the small joys of life and to persistently pursue her dreams. This is a story about hope, determination and the true strength of the human spirit, a book that will not leave anyone indifferent.
