The Villepin character seen by Blain has a charisma and an extraordinary movement. There's something to be disheveled following the major round trips, the heroes of punches, the entries breezed, VLAN folders on the table! We taste the rise and fall of politicians; it attaches to them for a page, it despises the next page. What emerges is a complex and fascinating portrait. Hopefully a second volume will come good.
