I'm not made of sugar or iron
Politics, unvarnished. A book-length interview with Markéta Pekarová Adamová.
How does the successful politician, long-serving MP, and chairwoman of TOP 09, Markéta Pekarová Adamová, see the functioning of Czech domestic and foreign policy? How difficult was it for her to succeed in a predominantly male, highly competitive world? And how does she now view certain political scandals and the unexpected turns in her own career? In an unusually open interview with journalist Tereza Šídlová, the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies does not shy away from personal questions or sensitive topics.
