It is noted that Angela Merkel wrote 736 pages of her book together with Beate Baumann, who accompanied Merkel on her journey for many years. Not only the volume, but also the price of the book is significant. One copy costs 42 euros, which is quite expensive for the German Book Market.
I'm very disappointed. Merkel clearly lacks self-criticism. I would also like more stories about her fellow politicians, how she saw them-in detail. Interesting, but not exciting. In addition, it is too expensive - 42 euros,
