| Description | History on a grand scale resembles a whirlpool that swallows human lives. Those born with the twentieth century knew this better than most, since they arrived in the world with promises of a radiant future and found themselves inside its darkest convulsions. Marco Balzano looks closely at Italy under Mussolini. His protagonist is born in 1900 and grows from a young man into an adult with a strangely angelic face, fair hair, and the nickname the Kid. He searches inconsolably for his mother, since his father is a modest watchmaker from Trieste who refuses to speak about her. His search seems to lead him towards the worst possible knowledge and eventually places a weapon in his hands. Even in a world ruled by a merciless struggle for survival, Balzano asks whether the purifying light of parental love can still endure. |
