米歇爾·奧巴馬新書即將面市 Michelle Obama is back with a new book, one year after her best-selling memoir “Becoming” flew off the shelves. Her new guided* journal, “Becoming: A Guided Journal for Discovering Your Voice,” will be a companion* piece to her critically-acclaimed memoir* and features an “intimate introduction” from Obama herself. Fans won’t have to wait long for the former first lady’s latest literary endeavor: The book will be available on November 19 for US$19.99. The guided journal is filled with “more than 150 inspiring questions and quotes that resonate* with key themes in Mrs. Obama’s memoir and that are designed to help readers reflect on their personal and family history, their goals, challenges, and dreams, what moves them and brings them hope, and what future they imagine for themselves and their community,” according to a release on the book from publisher Penguin Random House. “Becoming,” which was published in November 2018, dominated book sales in 2018, landing the No. 1 spot on the USA TODAY’s year-end top 100 best-selling books. Mrs. Obama and her husband have had full schedules. The couple also launched Higher Ground Productions last spring in partnership with Netflix, promising a company that would “harness* the power of storytelling” and touch on “issues of race and class, democracy and civil rights, and much more.” (SD-Agencies) |
