Title : My Chirac - A unique friendship - Alain Juppé - book

• Summary

Alain Juppé never forgot his first meeting with Jacques Chirac, at the Hôtel de Matignon in 1976: "A physical presence that filled the entire space." In this book, in the form of a confession, begun before the former President's death, he tells the story of this unique political couple that they formed for nearly forty years. It is a hollow portrait that emerges here with truth, a touch of nostalgia and a lot of tenderness. That of a singular friendship founded on mutual respect and the shared passion to serve France, in which the former mayor of Bordeaux hides nothing of his admiration. "This empathy between a people and the man who embodies it is an alchemy that does not always lend itself to analysis because it is a surge of the heart. » Just like this tribute. Alain Juppé was born in Mont-de-Marsan in 1945. A former student of the ENS, the ENA and a financial inspector, he was Jacques Chirac's collaborator at Matignon, then his deputy at Paris City Hall for twelve years, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Prime Minister, and he chaired the RPR then the UMP. Mayor of Bordeaux for more than twenty years, he is now a member of the Constitutional Council. He is the author of several books including Montesquieu the Modern (1997), The Temptation of Venice (1993) and Dictionnaire amoureux de Bordeaux (2018).
