M, el hijo del siglo

Human history is riddled with individuals whose names will last forever; there are others so iconic that they are known only by their first names. But there is another category, that of those who cannot even be named and for whom a letter suffices: Benito Mussolini belongs to it. This is the fictionalized biography of a man and, through him, also that of an entire epoch, that of the rise of fascism. But M. The son of the century is above all a vibrant, hypnotic story, with the depth of an essay and the narrative rhythm of the best contemporary fiction, about how a society decided to indulge in the delusions of greatness of one man.
