A mayor’s inspirational story of a Midwest city that has become nothing less than a blueprint for the future of American renewal.

Once described by the Washington Post as “the most interesting mayor you’ve never heard of,” Pete Buttigieg, the thirty-six-year-old Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged as one of the nation’s most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011, Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a “dying city,” because the industrial Midwest beckoned as a challenge to the McKinsey-trained Harvard graduate. Whether meeting with city residents on middle-school basketball courts, reclaiming abandoned houses, confronting gun violence, or attracting high-tech industry, Buttigieg has transformed South Bend into a shining model of urban reinvention.

While Washington reels with scandal, Shortest Way Home interweaves two once-unthinkable success stories: that of an Afghanistan veteran who came out and found love and acceptance, all while in office, and that of a Rust Belt city so thoroughly transformed that it shatters the way we view America’s so-called flyover country.

读后感

这是一个只把古稀当青年、老夫聊发少年狂的时代。民主党目前处于第一集团的四位总统候选人中三位超过70岁，传统意义上的青年人只有Pete Buttigiege一位，他目前已经在爱荷华初选民调中领跑。昨天晚上的辩论没有重现此前“枪打出头鸟”的景象，Buttigiege没有遭受猛烈的炮火攻击...

Master of political communication. Incredibly honest and raw account of his path to love.

小皮市长年纪轻轻已经称得上经历丰富履历闪亮了 最受触动的一处是他写到跳出咨询坑 When you are connected to an institution with that strong a name, people use it as a shortcut for understanding who you are. And if you're not careful, you use it as a shortcut, too, taking on the shape of that name yourself over time. 人不能够满足于学历与职场的品牌光环 一路这么优秀的人还能有这样的认知 值得共勉 从日常市政到党内纲领都有发展向前的眼界 希望他未来更有作为吧!
