"Elizabeth Warren is the single most important policy thinker and doer of this generation . What Warren is thinking about now is what Washington is going to be talking about next . " --Ezra Klein, The Ezra Klein Show "Part memoir, part political manifesto, this call to arms by the Massachusetts senator draws on pivotal moments from her life to make the case for personal perseverance and progressive policy goals . Moving." --The New York Times Book Review "Candid . Offers Warren's fullest comments to date on the role that gender played in the campaign and throughout her career." -- The Washington Post "Excellent and informative." -- New York magazine " Persist [will] delight those who revel in Warren's unique mix of down-to-earth-ness and policy expertise.
" --NPR " Warren is a warrior for the common person . That rare politician who can craft public policy from a personal viewpoint, Warren ardently delineates the practical applications behind her innovative solutions . This is Warren in depth, up close, and very personal, and a must-read for supporters and everyone interested in humane and just political action." -- Booklist (starred review) " Famous for being chided for 'persisting' on the Senate floor, Warren is nearly a byword for the application of an unbending, if usually polite, feminism to the corridors of power . A lively and thoughtful memoir that, one hopes, will inspire readers to pursue activism in every realm of society." -- Kirkus Reviews.
