Used book – Souvenirs souvenirs... (1), Catherine Nay

A great connoisseur of the world of politics behind the scenes, Catherine Nay offers us in her Memoirs an original and insightful account, full of humor, intelligence and vivacity, of the successive reigns of Pompidou, Giscard and Mitterrand, up to the election of Jacques Chirac, an intimate chronicle of this universe of passions where extraordinary personalities clash, whose confidences she gathers, whose most secret or best-hidden facets she deciphers.

Under the gaze of this seasoned investigator, power appears as it is: a romantic comedy made of particular sensitivities, beyond ideas and convictions. Catherine Nay tells it without hiding her crushes or her biases.
