I truly enjoyed this book. It is easier to believe how such a young man could have become President when one sees how incredibly insightful and introspective he already was when he wrote this book, at age 33. His life has been fascinating and I highly recommend this book. It is split roughly in thirds, with the first section talking about his childhood in Indonesia and Hawaii and his mother's side of the family, the middle third about his years as a community organizer in Chicago, right out of college (this section gave me a new understanding of race relations in the US that I really appreciated), and the last third telling of his first trip to Kenya to meet his relatives there and search for answers about his by-then-dead father. A very worthwhile read that has just enough depth to leave you wanting more. I was a bit thrown off by the fact that the narrative jumps around in a way that is hard to keep up with, especially if you're not reading the book in one sitting, but occasionally, a gorgeous passage will startle the reader, making up for the slight confusion. Also, a family tree would have been incredibly helpful, as keeping the generations and numbers of wives straight was a bit tough for me. Mostly, I am just beyond thrilled that someone who has dealt with so many issues of identity and deeply understands so many diverse groups of people through his own experience is President. His emotional intelligence is amazing.
