Il 3 maggio 1938, nella nuova stazione Ostiense, Mussolini insieme a Vittorio Emanuele III e al ministro degli esteri Ciano attende il convoglio con il quale Hitler e i suoi gerarchi scendono in Italia per una visita che toccherà Roma, Napoli e Firenze. Da poche settimane Hitler ha proclamato l’Anschluss dell’Austria e Mussolini, dopo aver deciso l’uscita dell’Italia dalla Società delle Nazioni, si appresta a promulgare una legislazione razziale di inaudita durezza. Eppure sono ancora molti a sperare che il delirio di potenza dei due capi di Stato possa fermarsi: tra loro Ranuccio Bianchi Bandinelli, l’archeologo incaricato di guidare il Führer tra le rovine della città eterna; Renzo Ravenna, decorato nella Grande guerra, fascista zelante e podestà di Ferrara, che al pari di migliaia di altri ebrei italiani non si dà pace per i provvedimenti che lo pongono ai margini della vita civile; Margherita Sarfatti, che sino all’ultimo spera in uno spostamento degli equilibri verso l’asse anglofrancese ma deve cedere il passo alla giovane Claretta Petacci e fuggire; e lo stesso Ciano, distratto da tresche sentimentali e politiche insensate come il piano di conquista dell’Albania, che solo un anno dopo, nel maggio 1939, si trova a siglare insieme a Ribbentrop il Patto d’Acciaio con il quale “l’Italia e la Germania intendono, in mezzo a un mondo inquieto e in dissoluzione, adempiere al loro compito di assicurare le basi della civiltà europea”. Antonio Scurati ricostruisce con febbrile precisione lo spaventoso delirio di Mussolini, pateticamente illuso di poter influenzare le decisioni del Führer, consapevole dell’impreparazione italiana, più che mai solo fino alla sera del giugno 1940 in cui dal balcone di Palazzo Venezia proclama “l’ora delle decisioni irrevocabili”. In questo nuovo pannello del suo grande progetto letterario e civile, Scurati inquadra il fatale triennio 1938-40, culmine dell’autoinganno dell’Italia fascista, che si piega all’infamia delle leggi razziali e dell’alleanza con la Germania nazista, e ripercorre gli ultimi giorni di un’Europa squassata da atti di barbara prevaricazione e incapace di sottrarsi al maleficio dei totalitarismi: un romanzo tragico e potente, carico di moniti per il nostro futuro.

The massive international bestseller—an epic historical novel that chronicles the birth and rise of fascism in Italy, witnessed through the eyes of its founder, the terrifyingly charismatic figure who would become one of the most notorious dictators of the twentieth century, Benito Mussolini. It is 1919, and the Great War that has ravaged Europe is over. In Italy, the people are exhausted. Tired of the political class. Tired of vague promises, inept moderates, and the agonizing machinations of a democracy that has failed ordinary citizens. While elite leaders have sat idly by, achieving nothing, one outsider—the director of a small opposition newspaper and a tireless political agitator—is electrifying the masses, promising hope for a demoralized nation hungry for change. A former socialist leader ousted by his own party, he is a drifter who knows what it is to feel lost. His voice speaks for the misfits and the outcasts; he is a protector of those who are forgotten. He is Benito Mussolini. And soon Italy—and the world—will be forever remade. In M: Son of the Century, Antonio Scurati tells the story of fascism from within the mind of its founder, the man known to his followers as Il Duce. Steeped in historical detail and interspersed with period documents and sources, this masterful saga explores the seductive power of nationalism and idolatry, revealing how authoritarianism took hold and a nation bent to the will of one ruthless strongman. Provocative and resonant, M is a chilling reminder that the past is never gone, and that it holds urgent lessons for us today.

The Mussolini Canal is one of the great achievements of contemporary Italian fiction. It spans 100 years of Italian history as seen through the lives of the Peruzzi family, who are among the 30,000 peasants from Northern Italy sent down to farm the newly-drained Pontine Marshes outside Rome in the 1930s. Mussolini is revered by the Peruzzi family, who must reconcile their admiration for Il Duce with the failings of Fascism which slowly envelop them. Contemporary events permeate the book and the hardship and misery of earlier periods are seen against the background of modern prosperity. It won the Strega prize in 2010 in Italy and has sold over 400,000 copies in Italy

At the age of nine, Juan Salvatierra became mute following a horse riding accident. At twenty, he began secretly painting a series of long rolls of canvas in which he minutely detailed six decades of life in his village on Argentina’s river frontier with Uruguay. After the death of Salvatierra, his sons return to the village from Buenos Aires to deal with their inheritance: a shed packed with painted rolls of canvas stretching over two miles in length and depicting personal and communal history. Museum curators from Europe come calling to acquire this strange, gargantuan artwork. But an essential roll is missing. A search ensues that illuminates the links between art and life, as an intrigue of family secrets buried in the past cast their shadows on the present.

Benito Mussolini was a brilliant Socialist journalist who in 1914 declared war, put himself at the head if the anti-Socialist movement in Italy, manoeuvred himself into power by 1933 and ruled the country until overthrown in 1943. He was a dynamic but insecure personality, who appeared dictatorial but always had to share power with the military and bureaucratic establishment. Mussolini founded an Empire in Africa and tried to 'make Italians' in his own heroic, war like image, but in fact failed to even control his own family! In June 1940, when France fell, he could not resist joining in the Second World War on the German side, although Italy was not equipped for serious fighting. His rule ended in Military disaster and personal humiliation. This new biography focuses both on Mussolini's personality and on the way he exercised power, and regards these two issues as closely linked. It sees him as a man with all the talents needed to attain power but few of those needed to exercise it well. This book primarily focuses on how Mussolini had absolutely the wrong personality for a successful political leader.
