Description
A New York Times best seller, this extraordinary memoir from Huma Abedin - Hillary Clinton’s famously private top aide and longtime advisor - offers “a gripping testament to the power of a woman finding her voice, owning her ambition, and sharing her truth” (Glennon Doyle).
Abedin’s stunning memoir garnered an extraordinary amount of media coverage, with appearances on CBS Sunday Morning, the Today show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The View, Late Night with Seth Meyers, Christiane Amanpour, and coverage in many other outlets, including The Washington Post, The New York Times, and NPR.
The daughter of Indian and Pakistani intellectuals and advocates, Abedin grew up in the United States and Saudi Arabia and traveled widely. Both/And grapples with family, legacy, identity, faith, marriage, motherhood - and work - with wisdom, sophistication, grace, and clarity.
Abedin launched full steam into a college internship in the office of the First Lady in 1996, never imagining that her work at the White House would blossom into a career in public service, nor that her career would become an all-consuming way of life. She thrived in rooms with diplomats and sovereigns, entrepreneurs and artists, philanthropists and activists, and witnessed many crucial moments in 21st-century American history - Camp David for urgent efforts at Middle East peace in the waning months of the Clinton administration, Ground Zero in the days after the September 11 attacks, the inauguration of the first African American president of the United States, and the convention floor when America nominated its first female presidential candidate.
Abedin’s relationship with Hillary Clinton has seen both women through extraordinary personal and professional highs, as well as unimaginable lows. Here, for the first time, is a deeply personal account of Clinton as mentor, confidante, and role model. Abedin cuts through caricature, rumor, and misinformation to reveal a crystal-clear portrait of Clinton as a brilliant and caring leader, a steadfast friend, generous, funny, hardworking, and dedicated.
Both/And is “the story of a person of substance - someone determined to tell her own story” (The New York Times) including the heartbreaking chronicle of her marriage to Anthony Weiner, what drew her to him, how much she wanted to believe in him, the devastation wrought by his betrayals - and their shared love for their son.
Abedin’s journey through the opportunities and obstacles, the trials and triumphs, of a full and complex life is a testament to her profound belief that in an increasingly either/or world, she can be both/and. Abedin’s compassion and courage, her resilience and grace, her work ethic and mission are an inspiration to women of all ages.

An entertaining, heartbreaking, inspiring story
As a South Asian public servant, I loved hearing the behind the scenes stories of working for HRC all these years. I also connected deeply with Huma’s stories about her family and upbringing and was touched by the heartbreaks she’s faced. Truly inspiring! A must read!

What a story!
I really liked this book. It packs a lot of "punch" being read by the author and especially because it is a true story. What really hits home, is not just the story of what her husband did (we even heard about it in Canada!) but the collateral damage done to his family was eye opening. It was just something I hadn't considered. It also gave a glimpse into the life a an American politician. She also told the story in a very factual way, and not as vindictive revenge against her husband, It was well written and preformed in such a manner that I felt her pain. I wish her only the best in the future.

Just wow wow wow!!!
Huma has captured her life so far in a spectacular way. She has inspired me yet again in the way she preserved her integrity, worked harder than anyone could imagine, educated us about cultural differences, the deep love she has for her family and her sweet son and the way she dealt with her marriage and in the end could still see the good things with a troubled man. And lastly, her portrayal of Hillary was nothing short of brilliant. I am hoping she writes more books but would highly recommend you read this one. You will not be disappointed. Loved her voice on audible too!

Loved this book!
Loved listening to this story, so much more happened than I could have imagined.
She has a beautiful voice to narrate buy I had to increase the speed just slightly to forget how concisely she was speaking and make it more conversational.

A good read
Well written and narrated by Huma. I followed the events first hand too and found the narration by a person at the center of it all fascinating. Thank you Huma.
