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 outsiderâthe director of a small opposition newspaper and a tireless political agitatorâis 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 Italyâand the worldâwill be forever remade. 541 $d 20220330. 600 14 $a Mussolini, Benito $b 1883-1945 $v Fiction. 650 $a Dictators $v Fiction. 650 $a Fascism $v Fiction. 650 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Italy $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. 700 $a Appel, Anne Milano, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728015458.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4DA16B2ADD8211ECA77FE4F053ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
