Michelle's Story
Michelle Obama's 2018 memoir begins in her childhood home in Chicago's South Side where she was raised by a loving father who had multiple sclerosis and a mother who never doubted her daughter's capabilities. Through Princeton, Harvard Law, a career in public interest law, and her marriage to Barack Obama, she traces her evolving identity and eventually her years as First Lady, including the extraordinary adjustment of raising two daughters in the most scrutinised home in the world. The memoir became the best-selling memoir of all time, selling over 17 million copies in its first year.
