À propos de cet audio
By the time Henry Kissinger was made secretary of state in 1973, he had become, according to a Gallup poll, the most admired person in America and one of the most unlikely celebrities ever to capture the world's imagination. Yet Kissinger was also reviled by large segments of the American public, ranging from liberal intellectuals to conservative activists.
Kissinger explores the relationship between this complex man's personality and the foreign policy he pursued. Drawing on extensive interviews with Kissinger as well as 150 other sources, including US presidents and his business clients, this first full-length biography makes use of many of Kissinger's private papers and classified memos to tell his uniquely American story.
The result is an intimate narrative, filled with surprising revelations, that follows this grandly colorful statesman from his childhood as a persecuted Jew in Nazi Germany, through his tortured relationship with Richard Nixon, to his later years as a globe-trotting business consultant.

Five stars
Incredible work combining a balanced analysis of Kissinger as a person along with describing some of the biggest foreign policy developments and paradigm shifts in the last 50 years. Combined with the domestic travails of Watergate and the Pentagon Papers, makes for an especially relevant read in today’s world of Trumpland scandals and public perceptions. Best book about the power balances and alliances within government since The Power Broker.

Bad acting
Great story, exceptional man.
But the reader is taking fake accents to emulate the voice of various characters with a poor and distracting result. I would have preferred reading the booking than listen to poor acting voices (like a bad dubbing of a French movie could sound like;).
