In an interview, the 82-year-old host and producer talks about the genesis of his next work and summarizes its content in broad terms.

Record for longevity on television, record for ideas, record for broadcasts, record for success… Michel Drucker has not finished surprising his viewers. In an interview given to Tele-Leisure the television man revealed that he had a lot of projects in his head, including a book that imposed itself on him during his long stay in convalescence in hospital. “It’s a book around the theme of duration. I started it when I was in the hospital, where I had time to think, as I stayed there for about a year due to serious heart problems”he declared.

Already, in 2021, in bookstore success It will be better tomorrowthe host talked about his life, his worries, his joys. The next work, which should be titled With time… will look back on 60 years of career, from his beginnings at ORTF in 1964 as a sports commentator, to today. “Being in my sixtieth year of career, I thought it was rather legitimate to talk about that”

Further on, he adds: “I am asked twice a day in the street: 'How did you manage to survive in this difficult and fragile profession?' I asked myself the question. I wonder how we can hope to stay here for the long term, and not just in our profession. So I explain how I succeeded”. A career like his, it is true, cannot be found under the hoof of a horse.

“It’s the same in the artistic world, for singers, actors, comedians: the most difficult thing is to last”he said. And to conclude: “This requires daily work of reflection and lucidity. You have to be lucky, and try to tick all the boxes. I therefore list in this book what, in my eyes, are essential or essential conditions to hope to last. Especially when you love what you do, when you have a passion for your job. It’s about making yourself known first, then not disappearing very quickly.”

With time…undoubtedly published by Robert Laffont like his previous , should be released in 2025, in April.
