M : son of the century / by Scurati, Antonio,1969-author.; Appel, Anne Milano,translator.; translation of:Scurati, Antonio,1969-M: il figlio del secolo.English.;
In M: A Novel, 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.
