"Becoming" is one of this year's most anticipated books. The sincere and inspiring memoir by the former First Lady of the United States of America has already sold more than 11 million copies, has been translated into 46 languages and has topped Amazon's most prestigious book ranking for more than a year.
In her book, Michelle Obama shares for the first time the intimate moments of her marriage - when she was trying to balance work and personal life, as well as the rapidly developing political career of her husband. We witness the couple's private conversations, walk shoulder to shoulder with the author through the magnificent halls of the White House, and accompany Michelle Obama on trips across the country. "Before the First Lady, America appears unadorned. I've been to auctions in private homes, more like museums with tubs of gems. I've seen families who lost everything in Hurricane Katrina and were grateful to the point of tears to receive a donation of at least a working refrigerator and stove. I've met hypocrites and liars. But I've also met teachers, military wives, and so many other people so strong in spirit that I could hardly believe my eyes." By telling her story with honesty and courage, the author makes each of us think: who am I and what is my story?
