Used book – Mitterrand's Hat, Antoine Laurain

Daniel Mercier is dining alone in a famous Parisian brasserie when – he can't believe his eyes – an illustrious guest sits down at the next table: François Mitterrand. His meal finished, the President forgets his hat, which Daniel decides to appropriate as a souvenir. Like a talisman, the black felt hat soon transforms his life. Could Daniel have uncovered the mystery of supreme power? Alas, he in turn loses the precious headwear, which continues its savory journey from head to head, disrupting the destinies of picturesque characters and painting, in the form of a fable, a portrait of France in the eighties.
