Keywords: autobiography, childhood, memoir
This debut book from President Barack Obama is an autobiographical journey that candidly relates his quest to discover his true self. Born to parents that were not only of different races, but different cultures, Barack tells the story of his youth in Hawaii raised by his white mother and grandparents after his father returned to Kenya and stepped out of his life.
Future President Obama explains his struggles as a child with his identity and his visit to Kenya after the death of his father to garner a glimpse of the man he never knew. Barack Obama released this conversational memoir in 1995.
