Title: The Tragedy of the President - Scenes from Political Life 1986-2006 - Franz-Olivier Giesbert - book

Summary :

One can never be wary enough of journalists. To avoid having to chase after a memory that has never ceased to elude me, I take notes. This is how, for more than fifteen years, I have recorded most of my conversations with Jacques Chirac in spiral notebooks. As his reign draws to a close, it seemed to me that it was time to empty my notebooks. I had not written them so that they would remain stale at the bottom of a drawer, but because the profession that guides my steps consists of shedding light on everything. Such is its grandeur, and its misery. If one wants to keep one's dark side, one must not associate with journalists. This is therefore not a biography in the proper sense but rather the story of a personal tragedy, which became, in the end, a national tragedy. This is the story I wanted to tell. A very French story. » FO.G., February 2006
