This is a long, complex memoir about a subject that polarizes, but it's worth a read. Some familiarity about U.S.-Israeli relations and the Middle East will help, especially with references to 1967 and 1948. Oren presents a different perspective than I usually hear about President Obama and his policies, and it left me with a lot of questions and notes for additional research. Oren gets a little too creative with his pop psychological analysis of Obama and his upbringing.
