Dawn Dusk or Night - Yasmina Reza

From celebrated playwright-novelist Yasmina Reza comes an unprecedented account of her year spent with French president Nicolas Sarkozy.
This utterly unorthodox portrait is written in a captivatingly impressionistic style:
their exchanges exist as a play of words and glances, framed as scenes from a headlong drama. Along the campaign trail, in strategy sessions, and at meetings with heads of state, writer and politician develop a relationship that knows no parallel.

Yasmina Reza is a playwright and novelist whose plays Art, Life x 3, The Unexpected Man, and Conversations After a Burial have all been multi-award-winning critical and popular international successes, translated into more than thirty languages. She lives in Paris.

"[Reza is] a splendid observer-nothing gets by her."
-The New York Times Book Review

"Quite possibly the most innovative and startling report on a political campaign ever written."
-Los Angeles Times

"Brilliantly evocative. . . . captivating. . . . A contemplation of a man struggling with the evanescence of time. This is the campaign trail as we have never seen it before."
-Times Literary Supplement
