Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From one of Barack Obamas most trusted aides comes a revelatory behind-the-scenes account of his presidencyand how idealism can confront harsh reality and still survive.The closest view of Obama were likely to get until he publishes his own memoir.George Packer, The New Yorker NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE GUARDIANFor nearly ten years, Ben Rhodes saw almost everything that happened at the center of the Obama administrationfirst as a speechwriter, then as deputy national security advisor, and finally as a multipurpose aide and close collaborator. He started every morning in the Oval Office with the Presidents Daily Briefing, traveled the world with Obama, and was at the center of some of the most consequential and controversial moments of the presidency. Now he tells the full story of his partnershipand, ultimately, friendshipwith a man who also happened to be a historic president of the United States. Rhodes was not your typical presidential confidant, and this is not your typical White House memoir. Rendered in vivid, novelistic detail by someone who was a writer before he was a staffer, this is a rare look inside the most poignant, tense, and consequential moments of the Obama presidencywaiting out the bin Laden raid in the Situation Room, responding to the Arab Spring, reaching a nuclear agreement with Iran, leading secret negotiations with the Cuban government to normalize relations, and confronting the resurgence of nationalism and nativism that culminated in the election of Donald Trump. In The World as It Is, Rhodes shows what it was like to be therefrom the early days of the Obama campaign to the final hours of the presidency. It is a story populated by such characters as Susan Rice, Samantha Power, Hillary Clinton, Bob Gates, andabove allBarack Obama, who comes to life on the page in moments of great urgency and disarming intimacy. This is the most vivid portrayal yet of Obamas worldview and presidency, a chronicle of a political education by a writer of enormous talent, and an essential record of the forces that shaped the last decade.Praise for The World as It IsA book that reflects the president [Rhodes] servedintelligent, amiable, compelling and principled . . . a classic coming-of-age story, about the journey from idealism to realism, told with candor and immediacy . . . His achievement is rare for a political memoir: He has written a humane and honorable book.Joe Klein, The New York Times Book Review "Originally published in hardcover in the United States by Random House, an imprint and division of Penguin Random House LLC, in 2018."--Title verso page.
