Book Reviews of The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream (Vintage)Book Review: Fascinating and inspiring Summary: 4 StarsWill any other US President ever have such an interesting global background?!
Despite some minor glitches in the writing, it is an excellent read.
Book Review: QUIET!! Optimistic Genius At Work Summary: 4 StarsThe title says it all. This man leaps of the page with a ruthless optimism and absolutely steaming intellect. I lack an interest in politics but would be blind if Mr Obama had failed to catch my eye. This book in interesting not just as an insight into a journey through the corridors of US power but as a portrait of a man who is not just a thinker but a doer. Well written and lacking in indulgence without conceding to excessive chronology and political massage this book is a good read, interesting and fun.
Book Review: Curious Summary: 4 StarsHe is the man, but his book a little too much. I read chapters 1-5 (inc) and then skipped to the final chapter.
Book Review: Ever hopeful Summary: 5 StarsUndoubtedly the most thoughtful and thought provoking book written by a politician that I have ever read.
Book Review: The Audacity of Hope Summary: 5 StarsI found this book extremely readable. Because it was written in sections (rather than chapters) I could read them out of order. To be able to read his thoughts on Race, Religion, Other countries, Family etc, this gave an extremely rounded picture of the man. He is truly charismatic - and all the traits which have been written about him before at length. Because of the coverage given to him, his family and his belief systems, it is almost impossible to write a fresh and impartial review - just to say he has the knowledge and ablity to make changes, and to paraphrase his own words - yes he can!! OUTSTANDING BOOK!!!
