Book
An intimate, powerful, and inspiring memoir by the former First Lady of the United States. When she was a little girl, Michelle Robinson's world was the South Side of Chicago, where she and her brother, Craig, shared a bedroom in their family's upstairs apartment and played catch in the park, and where her parents, Fraser and Marian Robinson, raised her to be outspoken and unafraid. But life soon took her much further afield, from the halls of Princeton, where she learned for the first time what if felt like to be the only black woman in a room, to the glassy office tower where she worked as a high-powered corporate lawyer--and where, one summer morning, a law student named Barack Obama appeared in her office and upended all her carefully made plans. Here, for the first time, Michelle Obama describes the early years of her marriage as she struggles to balance her work and family with her husband's fast-moving political career. She takes us inside their private debate over whether he should make a run for the presidency and her subsequent role as a popular but oft-criticized figure during his campaign. Narrating with grace, good humor, and uncommon candor, she provides a vivid, behind-the-scenes account of her family's history-making launch into the global limelight as well as their life inside the White House over eight momentous years--as she comes to know her country and her country comes to know her. [This book] takes us through modest Iowa kitchens and ballrooms at Buckingham Palace, through moments of heart-stopping grief and profound resilience, bringing us deep into the soul of a singular, groundbreaking figure in history as she strives to live authentically, marshaling her personal strength and voice in service of a set of higher ideals. In telling her story with honesty and boldness, she issues a challenge to the rest of us: Who are we and who do we want to become?

880 . ‡6520-00/$1 ‡a等身大の語り口で力強く胸に迫る、前アメリカ大統領夫人の回想錄。 子供のころ、ミシェル ロビンソンの世界はシカゴのサウスサイド地区だけだった。そこでは、一家が居候する家の2階で兄のクレイグと1つの寝室で眠り、公園で一緒にキャッチボールをした。両親のフレイザーとマリアンには、堂々と自分の意見を言うように育てられた。その後、彼女は広い世界に飛び出していく。プリンストン大学では、教室の中で自分がたった一人の黒人であることもあった。その後、ガラス張りのオフィスビルではエリートの企業法務弁護士として働いた。そしてある夏の朝、オフィスに現れたバラク オバマという法学生に出会ったことで、それまで綿密に計画されていた彼女の人生は一変する。本書「マイ ストーリー」では、ミシェル オバマが人生を振り返り、自分の仕事と家庭、そして政治家である夫のめまぐるしく変わるキャリアとのバランスを取ろうともがいた新婚時代も初めて語られる。バラクが大統領選に出馬すべきかどうかを夫婦で話し合ったときの会話や、選挙戦で大統領候補の妻として人気を集める一方で批判にさらされた経験も明らかされる。優雅でユーモラス、そして驚くほど率直な文章で鮮やかに描かれるのは、世界じゅうから注目を浴びながら歴史を紡いだ大統領一家の知られざる生活と、その特別な8年間を過ごしたホワイトハウスの内幕である。それは、彼女がアメリカを知り、アメリカが彼女を知っていく経緯だ。アイオワ州の平凡なキッチンからバッキンガム宮殿の舞踏会場までのさまざまな光景、悲しみに打ちのめされてもそれを乗り越える人々の強さ、そして、自分に正直に生き、よりよい世界の実現のための力を尽くして声を上げた唯一無二のパイオニアの心の奥底 ...。本書を読むとそういったものが自ずと浮かび上がってくる。自らの人生を大胆にありのまま語る彼女は、私たち読者に問いかける。私たちは何者で、これから何になりたいのか、と。
