For 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.

Dlouho očekávanou autobiografii Angely Merkelové lze považovat za politické memoáry desetiletí. Nemusíte tuto političku milovat ani obdivovat, určitě však stojí za to si knihu přečíst. Merkelová totiž byla u všeho podstatného, co se ve světové politice za poslední desítky let událo. V první části knihy se vrací i do dávnější minulosti, kdy žila ve východním Německu – za železnou oponou. Vzpomíná i na své působení v Praze v roce 1985, kdy zde dokončovala doktorát.
