This book is written in the mode of diary. Like any newspaper, one wonders if the author writes to be published in just to keep track of events that mark the political history. I think this book is located on the border of two literary spaces. The first is the story of a work to the agriculture ministry. We learn a lot about endless displacement at the highest level working meetings. We also understand that there is little space for privacy and it's also the story of a father who does not see his children and that this book can also be written for them. To justify the lack of a father. The second is the story of disenchanted Sarkozy campaign in 2012. What is surprising is that early in the campaign, the author describes a fight that is already lost. Positioning lack of political discourse, shortness of breath. The speech is not differentiating as it has been in 2007. Lack of new ideas and engagement out of politics of belonging family. Bruno Lemaire allows some digressions on the trade policy which is seen as a battle of priesthood.
