Description: "In her candid, honest, and at times bitingly funny memoir, the pragmatic Senator Amy Klobuchar offers insider stories from historic moments, including the Covid-19 pandemic, her bid in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary, and the January 6 insurrection. She also invites readers into her personal life, sharing her experience facing a cancer diagnosis while her father succumbs to Alzheimer's. At the crux of these stories is a narrative of resilience-of personal resilience and the resilience of a nation-and, improbably, joy"-- Provided by publisher.
