From trailblazing Michigan governor and rising Democratic star Gretchen Whitmer comes an unconventionally honest, personal, and funny account of her remarkable life and career, full of insights that guided her through a global pandemic, showdowns with high-profile bullies, and even a kidnapping and assassination plot.

voice & wisdom
Revisado: 09-16-24
most of the book sounds like her. there is some light editing here and there I think and reworking by a ghost, but she reads it and she reads it like she means it. she's smart and funny and totally straightforward. I think. I'm like the way she talks and writes, and I think that she has wisdom that I can use.

With great originality and wit, Orwell unfolds his views on subjects ranging from a revaluation of Charles Dickens to the nature of Socialism, from a comic yet profound discussion of naughty seaside postcards to a spirited defense of English cooking. Displaying an almost unrivalled mastery of English plain prose, Orwell’s essays created a unique literary manner from the process of thinking aloud and continue to challenge, move, and entertain.

Insights into life & the world, nicely read.
Revisado: 05-20-24
Orwell is famous as an essayist, and this collection illustrates why. Except for scattered self-conscious assertions of socialist faith, the text is wonderful -- about boys books, about elite schools in England, about WWII and popular sentiment. It makes you want to write a similar essay, as it plants and feeds despair that you couldn't possibly do it as well. The reader is quite good too.
