Summary: Hillary Clinton's new book of essays of stories from her life, up to and including her experiences in the 2016 presidential campaign, has been inspired by the hundreds of quotations she has been collecting for decades: "These are the words I live by. These quotes have helped me celebrate the good times, laugh at the absurd times, persevere during the hard times, and deepen my appreciation of all life has to offer. I hope by sharing these words and my thoughts about them, the essays will be meaningful for readers."--Hillary Clinton. The former secretary of state relates her experiences as the first woman candidate nominated for president by a major party, discussing the sexism, criticism, and double standards she had to confront, and how she coped with a devastating loss

Sammendrag: I "What Happened" fortæller Hillary Rodham Clinton sin version af forløbet op til og efter det amerikanske præsidentvalg i 2016. Hun beskriver sin kampagne, strategier og valg, mødet med vælgere i hele USA og samarbejdet med sit kampagneteam. Hun analyserer faktorer som politisk polarisering, mediernes dækning, social media, misinformation og indblanding udefra. Samtidig er bogen personlig: Clinton skriver om at være kvinde i toppolitik, om at håndtere angreb, sexisme og konspirationsteorier, og om hvordan hun og hendes familie håndterede nederlaget og vejen videre. Bogen kombinerer erindringer, politisk refleksion og råd til læsere, der interesserer sig for demokrati, valg og aktivt medborgerskab.
