Janvier 2001. Nicolas Sarkozy fait sa rentrée politique. Depuis dix-huit mois, depuis les élections européennes de 1999, il gardait le silence, parce qu'il aspirait à prendre du recul, à réfléchir.Ce livre est le reflet de son cheminement personnel et politique.Avec une liberté de ton inédite, il évoque son engagement, ses erreurs, ses réflexions, ses rencontres, ses aspirations. Il raconte aussi ce qu'est la vie politique en France aujourd'hui, et parle sans fard des relations qu'il entretient avec ses grands acteurs, notamment Jacques Chirac.Et surtout, il propose, pour la première fois depuis longtemps, un programme politique qui ose s'appeler de droite. Une droite devenue enfin moderne parce qu'elle aura su abandonner ses frilosités pour devenir imaginative, généreuse et ouverte.
