Under the Neon Sun

Bag om Under the Neon Sun

Unable to afford rent, Mia-a community college student-lives out of her car, cleaning houses of the well-to-do in the LA area to meet her shoestring budget. Then Covid hits, and everything changes. For people living in houses and apartments, with stay-at-home jobs, the pandemic was inconvenient. For Mia-a student and housekeeper whose budget is so tight she lives in her car-the pandemic destroys the very source of her paltry income. Fortunately, gutsy and funny Mia is a determined survivor. After weeks of cutting her limited spending even further, missing meals along the way, her wealthy employers become desperate for her services again. This time, she's determined not to let them take advantage of her as they have in the past. Her newfound confidence gives her new hope as she works to escape the shackles of poverty on her own terms. Sally Rooney meets Elizabeth Strout in this brilliant fiction debut.
