Preceded byShattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign 

Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency is a non-fiction book by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, journalists for NBC News and The Hill, respectively. The book is about Joe Biden's successful campaign in the 2020 United States presidential election.[1] Allen and Parnes had previously written Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign, a book about Hillary Clinton's unsuccessful campaign in the 2016 United States presidential election.[2]

Content

Lucky describes how, according to Allen and Parnes, Joe Biden "barely won the presidency".[2] They describe conflicting ideas among Biden's campaign staff about political strategy, rhetoric, and policy. The book covers the campaign's response to matters such as the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing racial unrest.[1][2] The Biden campaign's navigation of the COVID-19 pandemic is given as one major reason for electoral success.[3][4] It examines interactions between key Democratic Party figures and the campaign, such as Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Andrew Cuomo.[5][6]

Reception

Lucky never made The New York Times Best Seller list and sold 10,000 copies, far fewer than the 125,000 copies sold of Shattered.[7]

Follow-up

Allen and Parnes confirmed in July 2024 that they would write a third book in the series about the 2024 presidential election.[8]
