Découvrir l'intimité des "grands hommes" est décidément une chose exquise ! Dans cette correspondance - ou plutôt ce monologue passionné ! - l'amour de Napoléon pour sa femme Joséphine s'étale sur toute la palette des sentiments. Tour à tour sensuel, exclusif, sauvage voire brutal avant de se nuancer et de s'assagir au fil et des épreuves et des champs de Batailles ! Même à la fin, Napoléon continuera de lui témoigner de l'affection sans bornes à "sa" Joséphine ! Lues par la voix bouleversante de Pierre Fresnay, ces 33 lettres écrites entre 1795 et 1814 montrent l'intimité d'un homme dont le génie s'abandonne - sans fard - à la passion des sentiments ! A tout point de vue, ce livre audio est un document exceptionnel !
