Dreams from My Father 是 Barack Obama 的一部非凡回忆录。作为非裔黑人父亲与美裔白人母亲的儿子，在 Obama 年仅两岁时，父亲便抛弃了家庭。多年后，Obama 接到了一个来自内罗毕的电话：他的父亲去世了。这一突如其来的噩耗开启了 Obama 追寻情感根源的漫漫旅程，他决心探寻父亲一生的真相，并与自己被割裂的血脉传承达成和解。本书写于他三十三岁那年，远在 Obama 产生从政念头之前，Dreams from My Father 是一本令人难忘的佳作。它不仅照亮了 Obama 的人生历程，

奥巴马曾说他在大学时写过“非常糟糕的诗歌”，他的传记作者戴维·门德尔（David Mendell）也表示，他曾一度“抱有将写小说作为业余爱好的想法”。就此而言，《我父亲的梦想》展现了一种本能的故事讲述天赋（这在后来的竞选巡回中对他大有裨益），以及天才小说家具备的那种同理心与抽离感的奇特结合。在那本回忆录中，……
Obama has said that he wrote "very bad poetry" in college and his biographer David Mendell suggests that he once "harbored some thoughts of writing fiction as an avocation." For that matter, "Dreams From My Father" evinces an instinctive storytelling talent (which would later serve the author well on the campaign trail) and that odd combination of empathy and detachment gifted novelists possess. In that memoir,…
《我父亲的梦想》是一本挺不错的书。这是他在开始竞选总统之前写的，所以对于了解他的内心世界来说确实是个很好的视角。光是为了了解一个勤奋、成功的混血儿就值得一读……
Dreams From My Father is a pretty good book. He wrote it before he started running for President, so it's actually quite a nice insight into his mind. It's worth reading just to get to know a hard-working, successful biracial…
写理论著作、出书等与人们走向权力巅峰之间的关系相当耐人寻味。另见：奥巴马的《我父亲的梦想》、《无畏的希望》。特朗普的《残破的美国》。希特勒的《我的奋斗》（版权马上就要过期了）。毛泽东的“红宝书”。在《安德的游戏》（小说，但引人入胜）中，安德的……
