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.

Même à la fin, Napoléon continuera de lui témoigner de l'affection sans bornes à "sa" Joséphine !
