Résumé
Timely, intimate and important, the long-awaited memoirs from one of the
most influential leaders of our timesFor 16 years, Angela Merkel was
Chancellor of Germany. She led the country through numerous crises,
shaping both Germany and international politics with her actions and
attitudes. In her memoirs, co-written with her long-time political
advisor Beate Baumann, she reflects on her life in two German states –
35 years in the German Democratic Republic, 35 years in reunited
Germany.
More intimately than ever before, she talks about her
childhood, youth, and studies in the GDR and the dramatic year of 1989,
when the Berlin Wall fell and her political life began. She also shares
recollections and insights from her meetings and conversations with the
world's most powerful people. Discussing significant national,
European, and international turning points, she shows how the decisions
were made that shaped our times.
Her book offers a unique insight into the inner workings of power – and is a compelling plea for freedom.
