Ex-Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU) wants to publish her political memories in a book in autumn 2024. The publishing house at Kiepenheuer announced that the memoirs, written together with her long-time political adviser Beate Baumann, would provide an exclusive, personal insight into Merkel’s political life and work
Merkel wrote in the publisher’s statement: “I am pleased to be able to reflect on the central decisions and situations of my political work in my book, written together with Beate Baumann, and to make them understandable to a broad public, also with recourse to my personal history.”
Merkel, now 68, did not run for the federal elections last September after 16 years as chancellor.
