I went to Stephanie Land’s book launch of Class in NYC.
Don’t even want to read the book, she was rude, uninteresting and her book launch was super dysfunctional. She stared at her feet while people tried to speak with her.
I second everyone’s opinions on Maid: She makes excuses for her poor behavior and everyone else always seems to be the problem in her writing – seems like a massive victim complex and a ton of weaponized incompetence. Her story does not shadow the lives of so many women in this country truly struggling and doing everything they can to change her situation. Don’t waste your $$ - donate the $27 to a cause that will actually support struggling young adults like the union settlement association.
I would love to meet her in person just to see how she really is. Class has been so so disappointing for me so far. Besides the lack of accountability, just lacking in substance, reflection and value.
Trust me, you didn’t miss out on much…
