A bold literary project. For a year, Yasmina Reza followed, in absolute liberty and with full independence, the new French president Nicolas Sarkozy. This is the portrait, by a great writer, of a man on the quest for power. Caustic and at times cruel… to be savoured slowly, line by line… Le Monde The portrait of a wild beast by a tiger; of a warrior by a conqueror. In this… tragic-comedy there are many a dialogue that the theatre could envy, and that Yasmina Reza stages excellently. Nouvel Observateur The fabulous portrait of a singular man. Le Parisien The drama of Nicolas Sarkozy’s pursuit of the presidency through the eyes of Yasmina Reza, France’s most celebrated playwright. The New York Times
