«Eu e os Políticos» is the memoir and political journalism book by José António Saraiva, published by Gradiva in paperback (264 pages, in Portuguese).
Journalist José António Saraiva brings together in this book episodes experienced first-hand with dozens of politicians who shaped Portugal's recent history, from Álvaro Cunhal and Mário Soares to Cavaco Silva, Durão Barroso and António Costa. After more than forty years in the profession, including stints leading the newspapers Expresso and Sol, the author finally reveals what the press did not report and what he could not or would not publish at the time.
The full subtitle is «O que não pude (ou não quis) escrever até hoje», and the cover features the striking label «O Livro Proibido» over a grid of portraits of Portuguese politicians.
Recommended for readers interested in contemporary Portuguese politics and first-hand testimonial journalism.
