Becoming is the memoir of former First Lady Michelle Obama, where she reflects on her personal and public life, from her childhood in Chicago to her years in the White House. Divided into three sections—Becoming Me, Becoming Us, and Becoming More—the book explores her journey of self-discovery, the challenges of balancing her career and motherhood, and the experiences of being the first African American First Lady of the United States.
In Becoming Me, Obama details her upbringing in Chicago's South Side, her education at Princeton and Harvard, and her early career as a lawyer. Becoming Us focuses on her relationship with Barack Obama, their marriage, and their entry into political life. Finally, Becoming More delves into her role as First Lady, her initiatives like Let's Move!, and her post-White House life, encouraging readers to reflect on their own journeys.
Becoming is an inspiring narrative about finding one's voice, the complexities of identity, and the power of resilience and community.
