Obama reads his own story, in this abridged edition of his number one best seller. The unabridged edition, newly recorded by Barack Obama, will be available from fifth October 2021 only on Audible.

An international best seller which has sold over a million copies in the UK, Dreams from My Father is a refreshing, revealing portrait of a young man asking big questions about identity and belonging.

The son of a Black African father and a white American mother, Obama was only two years old when his father walked out on the family. Many years later, he receives a phone call from Nairobi: his father is dead. This sudden news inspires an emotional odyssey for Obama, determined to learn the truth of his father's life and reconcile his divided inheritance.

Written at the age of 33, nearly 15 years before becoming president, Dreams from My Father is an unforgettable listen. It illuminates not only Obama's journey, but also our universal desire to understand our history and what makes us who we are.

To dare to lift the lid on ones own heritage race and culture demands courage.

Complicated messy and honest.

This is what seems to be a honest look on the author's "his-story" and the questions he had about the struggles of race, his own heritage and what anyone could achieve in life. He wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth but the people in his life loved him & challenged him to become who he is. Much of what he shares with passion, shows that he was & is a "normal" human being, with questions, inner struggles & experiences not unlike those of other, every day folk. Here is someone whom I think could genuinely understand & sympathise with others because of where he has come from in life & learned from his own experiences.

a story about the value & importance of our roots

Inspirational story and telling of it, though I was able to follow it at 0,80 speed only. We would need many Barack Obamas to be our politicians all over the world.

Inspirational
