SOLD OUT: Angela Merkel: Freedom - Reading

Angela Merkel was responsible for governing Germany for 16 years, led the country through numerous crises and shaped German and international politics with her actions and attitude. In her memoirs, written together with her long-time political advisor Beate Baumann, she looks back on her life in two German states - 35 years in the GDR and 35 years in reunified Germany. She talks about her childhood, youth and studies in the GDR and the dramatic year 1989, when the Wall fell and her political life began. She shares her conversations with the most powerful people in the world and uses important political turning points to shed light on how decisions were made that have shaped our times. Her book offers a unique insight into the inner workings of power - and is a resolute plea for freedom.
