Michelle Obama’s autobiography Becoming is on course to become the most successful memoir in publishing history, after selling more than 10m copies to date, the former first lady’s publisher said on Tuesday. Thomas Rabe, chief executive of German media group Bertelsmann, hailed the book as “the most notable creative success” of the past year, as well as a “highly profitable” one for its publishing arm. “We believe that these memoirs could well become the most successful memoir ever,” he said.
