Becoming
by Michelle Obama
Michelle Obama's memoir traces the long arc from a working-class childhood on Chicago's South Side to eight years in the White House, and resists the easy gloss of a political success story. It's most alive in the ordinary details, and most persuasive when it admits how hard the becoming actually was.
