Details

about the book

In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father—a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man—has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey—first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance.

Book Review

A remarkable story, beautifully told. -- Robert McCrum ― * Observer *

Whatever else people expect from a politician, it's not usually a beautifully written personal memoir steeped in honesty. Barack Obama has produced one. -- Oona King ― * The Times *

Obama's writing is characterised throughout by a graceful eloquence, a generosity of perception and spirit rare in young men of many gifts and charisma...here is a testimony for the ages. -- Candace Allen* ― * Independent *

It is an almost illicit pleasure to be reading the unspun memories of a man who may yet become president of the US. ― * Guardian *

This book is simply justified, whatever its long-term political significance may or may not be, as a rich and rewarding read ― * Herald *

...it is a well-written account of Obama's struggle to establish his own views on identity and race, and all the more entertaining for its honesty. -- Elaine Moore ― * Financial Times * Published On: 2007-11-03

With its honesty and cool language, and by virtue of having a story worth telling, the book impresses far more than the typical political memoir. -- Colin Waters ― * Sunday Herald * Published On: 2008-06-01
