Chopsy is a memoir like no other – a gut-wrenchingly powerful, yet frequently funny account of a life spent defying the prejudice and inequality faced by working-class women.
Maya Jordan’s ambition and resilience was born in the library and nourished by the Open University – through poverty, early motherhood, precarious housing, caring responsibilities and chronic disability – to a point where she finally seized her right to write.
'Funny as hell and full of fight. Maya’s voice is the real deal' Daisy May Cooper
'A curse on being ordinary! Wrong is not her name. Her name is Maya Jordan. She is a noisy woman and we should fear her' Michael Sheen

Her work has been performed by Sheen for BBC Radio Wales’s Margins to Mainstream and was highlighted by him in a recent TEDx Talk Levelling the Cultural Playing Field.
