Reader Recommendation
From Madeleine Kaye
Barack Obama’s new memoir, A Promised Land, is being released November 17. I just left my pre-order with Indigo Books. Others may want to do the same. An excerpt from the “New Yorker Magazine” pre-release review:
“… a painfully candid diagnosis of how racist hatred of Obama — encouraged by Tea Party politicians — metastasized through the American body politic. But perhaps most important, this preview of the president’s memoir reminds us — after four years of inane chants and vicious attacks — that a president can address Americans not as cult members or socialist enemies but simply as intelligent citizens.”
A nice holiday gift for the discerning reader on your list …
