In 2006, Yasmina Reza, the most celebrated playwright in France, asked Nicolas Sarkozy a simple question: Would he allow her to spend the next year with him and his team as he campaigned for the French presidency? His response was an unqualified yes. To the alarm of his advisers, and the consternation of many of her friends, who feared she was making a pact with the devil, she picked up her notebook and her pencil, and off she went.<br><br>It is not enough to say that she was an observer of Sarkozy&#8217;s rise to power. Rather, hers is the account of a brilliant woman of letters dancing in orbit with the most powerful man in France. Their casual exchanges, her remarkable insights, their phenomenal experience exist as a play of words and glances, framed as scenes from a headlong drama. Through the greenrooms, bus rides, and flights, along the campaign trail; in strategy sessions and at meetings with heads of state;, in all hours of the day and night, they develop a relationship that knows no parallel, bridging the arts and politics, abiding within a purely intellectual sphere without judgment, conflict, or competition.<br><br>The groundbreaking <i>Dawn, Dusk or Night </i>defies genre to offer a spellbinding look at the interplay between two formidable champions bound by intellect and nation.</p> 2627011 22 4 2008 Dawn, Dusk or Night: My Year with Nicolas Sarkozy total:22|5:4|4:6|3:8|2:2|1:2| 22 74 40 6 5 0 false false Tue Aug 19 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 19 15:41:12 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 21 06:54:24 -0700 2008 In 2006, in...more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Dec 13 16:23:33 -0800 2008 Sat Dec 13 16:27:24 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Mar 11 09:23:25 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 11 09:24:04 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu Oct 16 05:42:41 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 16 05:45:01 -0700 2008 more...]]> 1 0 false false Wed Jul 22 15:53:24 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 14 23:24:54 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 29 16:48:05 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 29 16:48:33 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Nov 19 11:14:48 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 19 11:15:04 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Wed Sep 02 08:07:33 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 02 08:07:33 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Aug 09 14:09:55 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 09 14:09:55 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 08 11:08:59 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 08 11:08:59 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed May 20 18:19:09 -0700 2009 Wed May 06 18:27:58 -0700 2009 Wed May 20 18:19:09 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 06 05:20:34 -0700 2009 Wed May 06 05:20:34 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Apr 17 11:10:31 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 11:10:31 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Apr 10 20:42:02 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 10 20:42:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Apr 10 04:47:31 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 10 04:47:31 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Mar 13 01:26:21 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 13 01:26:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Feb 02 16:03:24 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 16:03:24 -0800 2009 1 0 false false Mon Feb 16 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Dec 29 19:26:19 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 17 05:52:32 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Dec 16 23:31:58 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 16 23:32:11 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Dec 15 10:43:10 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 15 10:43:10 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2602371
