Freedom: Memories 1954 – 2021
Book • 2024
In her memoir, Angela Merkel recounts her life in two German states – 35 years in the German Democratic Republic and 35 years in reunited Germany.
She reflects on her childhood, youth, and studies in the GDR, the dramatic year of 1989, and her rise to become the first woman Chancellor of Germany.
The book offers insights into her daily life in the chancellor’s office, significant national, European, and international turning points, and the pressure politicians face in a globalized world.
It is a unique insight into the inner workings of power and a timely plea for freedom.
