520    In a life filled with meaning and accomplishment, Michelle
       Obama has emerged as one of the most iconic and compelling
       women of our era. As First Lady of the United States of 
       America, she helped create the most welcoming and 
       inclusive White House in history. With unerring honesty 
       and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her 
       disappointments, both public and private. A deeply 
       personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who 
       has steadily defied expectations. 
520    "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 look 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?"--
