| Plot |
| For five years, George Stephanopoulos was witness to the decisions and events that shaped Bill Clintons fate. Now with the narrative skill and eye for detail of a novelist, Stephanopoulos tells a gripping story of human frailty in high places. When he first met Clinton, George like many others before him and since, fell in love with his brilliance, charisma, empathy, and lofty goals. Here was the perfect vehicle for an ambitious young man, yet little did he anticipate the roller-coaster ride ahead. Through the breathtaking triumphs and disasters, George clung to the vision of what a Clinton presidency could be, even as he began to see hidden, dark compartments in the man who would bring him to grief. In addition to the complex portrait of the President, there are brilliant, nuanced sketches of all the key players, including Al Gore, Dick Morris, and Hillary Clinton, whose combative instincts were, sadly, behind many of her husbands missteps. Here too is a candid, sometimes merciless, self-portrait of the author, whose drives, vanities, and insecurities, along with everyone elses, peppered the playing field of the biggest game in town. All Too Human is as topical as todays headlines, and a political memoir for the ages. Also Available as a Time Warner AudioBook |
