Description
M Son of the Century is a gripping and masterful exposé that explores the rise of fascism from within the mind of its founder. This is a story of unrelenting determination, a portrait of the fascist mindset, and an impeccable work of historical fiction.
Through the lens of Benito Mussolini's rise to power, Antonio Scurati sheds light on a movement that, amidst a failing democracy, came to shape the world. With panoptic and polyphonic prose, Scurati gives us the experiences of the fearful and the feared, the rhetoric of both the revolutionaries and the reactionaries, creating an immense mosaic of the era.
