About the Book

Um relato íntimo e fascinante da história em formação - feito pelo líder que nos inspirou a acreditar no poder da democracia.

No comovente e aguardado primeiro volume de suas memórias presidenciais, Barack Obama narra, nas próprias palavras, a história de sua odisseia improvável, desde quando era um jovem em busca de sua identidade até se tornar líder da maior democracia do mundo. Com detalhes surpreendentes, ele descreve sua formação política e os momentos marcantes do primeiro mandato de sua presidência histórica - época de turbulências e transformações drásticas.

Obama conduz os leitores através de uma jornada cativante, que inclui suas primeiras aspirações políticas, a vitória crucial nas primárias de Iowa, na qual se demonstrou a força do ativismo popular, e a noite decisiva de 4 de novembro de 2008, quando foi eleito 44° presidente dos Estados Unidos, o primeiro afro-americano a ocupar o cargo mais alto do país.

Ao refletir sobre a presidência, ele faz uma análise singular e cuidadosa do alcance e das limitações do Poder Executivo, além de oferecer pontos de vista surpreendentes sobre a dinâmica da política partidária dos Estados Unidos e da diplomacia internacional. Obama leva os leitores para dentro do Salão Oval e da Sala de Situação da Casa Branca, e também em viagens a Moscou, Cairo e Pequim, entre outros lugares.

Acompanhamos de perto seus pensamentos enquanto monta o gabinete, enfrenta uma crise financeira global, avalia a figura de Vladímir Pútin, supera dificuldades que pareciam insuperáveis para aprovar a Lei de Assistência Acessível (Affordable Care Act), bate de frente com generais sobre a estratégia militar dos Estados Unidos no Afeganistão, trata da reforma de Wall Street, reage à devastadora explosão da plataforma petrolífera Deepwater Horizon e autoriza a Operação Lança de Netuno, que culmina com a morte de Osama bin Laden.

Uma terra prometida é extraordinariamente pessoal e introspectivo - o relato da aposta de um homem na história, da fé de um líder comunitário posta à prova no palco mundial. Obama fala com sinceridade sobre os obstáculos de concorrer a um cargo eletivo sendo um americano negro, sobre corresponder às expectativas de uma geração inspirada por mensagens de "esperança e mudança" e sobre lidar com os desafios morais das decisões de alto risco. É honesto sobre as forças que se opuseram a ele dentro e fora do país, franco sobre os efeitos da vida na Casa Branca em sua esposa e em suas filhas e audacioso ao confessar suas dúvidas e desilusões. Jamais duvida, porém, de que no grande e incessante experimento americano o progresso é sempre possível.

Brilhantemente escrito e poderoso, este livro demonstra a convicção de Barack Obama de que a democracia não é uma benção divina, mas algo fundado na empatia e no entendimento comum e construído em conjunto, todos os dias.
