«Portrait du président: le monarque imaginaire» is the biographical essay by Jean-Marie Colombani, published by Gallimard in paperback (219 pages, in French).
Five years after coming to power, François Mitterrand remains an enigma: did he transform France or merely manage the inevitable? Colombani analyzes his contradictions, his way of governing and the three photos in his office at the Élysée (Hugo, Jaurès, Clemenceau) as keys to the image he wants to leave in history.
1985 edition in the «Le Monde actuel» collection; includes bibliographic references.
For readers interested in twentieth-century French political history and the figure of François Mitterrand.
Jean-Marie Colombani is a French journalist, and was the editor-in-chief of the daily newspaper Le Monde from 1994 until 2007.
