Barack

book
,
Dreams
from My
Father
.
Although
the
book was written
in
the
1990

succeeds
in
connecting
us
to
its
relevance
today

well
.

Obama

a
tapestry
of
connections

past

the
present

the
future

’

life

youth

being
President

the
United
States

between
his
education
and
his
professional
community
work

his
abilities
as
president
.
In
his
article
,
Emil manages
to
simplify
the
book

complexity
somewhat and
to make
it possible
to
ready
it
in a professional
,
pleasant
and
free
-
flowing manner
.
