Ladies and gentlemen, big news in the literary world! Former First Lady Melania Trump is set to release her first memoir this fall, aptly titled "Melania."
Billed by her office as "a powerful and inspiring story of a woman who has carved her own path, overcome adversity and defined personal excellence," this memoir promises to offer a unique glimpse into her life and experiences.
Published by Skyhorse Publishing, known for working with notable Donald Trump supporters like Rudolph Giuliani and Alan Dershowitz, as well as other high-profile figures such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Michael Cohen, "Melania" is already generating significant buzz. The memoir's announcement came from Melania Trump's office, but specifics such as the release date and whether it will be out before Election Day in November remain under wraps.
For the first time, Melania Trump will share her personal stories and family photos, inviting readers into her world. The memoir is described as an intimate portrait of a woman who has lived an extraordinary life. Despite being a public figure, Melania has always maintained a level of privacy, making this book an eagerly anticipated release.
In an interesting twist, the memoir will be available in two editions. The "Collector’s Edition," priced at $150, will feature 256 pages in full color and will be signed by the author. The "Memoir Edition," costing $40, will be 304 pages long, including 48 pages of never-before-seen photographs.
Signed copies of this edition will be available for $75. Both editions can be pre-ordered exclusively through MelaniaTrump.com, although there is no word yet on whether they will be available elsewhere.
Unlike many former presidents and first ladies, Donald and Melania Trump have not released post-White House books through mainstream New York publishers.
Donald Trump, who had previously published numerous books with major publishers, has turned to Winning Team Publishing, a company co-founded by Donald Trump Jr. and former Trump campaign staffer Sergio Gor, for his recent releases.
Melania Trump's memoir marks a significant moment as it will be the first time she tells her story at length. Known for her "Be Best" initiative focused on children's well-being, and for her dedication to raising her son Barron, Melania has largely stayed out of the spotlight since leaving the White House.
