Ivanka Trump’s new book, intended to provide advice for women who want to “have it all,” is being criticized for only applying to a small population of women.
Trump wrote “Women Who Work: Rewriting the Rules for Success” during the election season. It is a compilation of Trump’s own “struggles” as well as a number of misapplied quotes from influential people.
But the book seems to view the world through the eyes of a woman wearing rose-colored sunglasses. The New York Times called the book “a strawberry milkshake of inspirational quotes” and “perfect for a generation weaned on Pinterest.” Huffington Post describes it as “a grab-bag of generic work-life advice for upper-middle-class white women who need to’architect’ (a verb that pops up a lot) their lives.”
