Original Hardcover. Publisher: Random House USA | | Original Hardcover | 418 p. | This book is brand new. | Language: Engelska --- Information regarding the book: An inspiring story, richly detailed and written with élan, here is the first comprehensive account of the life and times of Michelle Obama, a woman of achievement and purposeand the most unlikely first lady in modern American history. With disciplined reporting and a storytellers eye for revealing detail, Peter Slevin follows Michelle to the White House from her working-class childhood on Chicagos largely segregated South Side.The journey winds from the intricacies of her upbringing as the highly focused daughter of a gregarious city water-plant worker afflicted with multiple sclerosis to the tribulations she faces at Princeton University and Harvard Law School during the racially charged 1980s. And then returning to Chicago, where she works in an elite law firm and meets a law student from Hawaii named Barack Obama. Unsatisfied by corporate law, Michelle embarks on a search for meaningful work that takes her back to the community of her South Side youth, even as she struggles to find balance as a mother and a professionalwhile married to a man who wants to be president.Slevin deftly explores the drama of Baracks historic campaigns and the harsh glare faced by Michelle in a role both relentlessly public and not entirely of her choosing. He offers a fresh and compelling view of the White House years when Michelle Obama casts herself as mentor, teacher, champion of nutrition, supporter of military families, and fervent opponent of inequality. | We have this book in our store house - please allow for a couple of extra days for delivery.
