Specialist Notes

First edition. Indecent book for text and drawings. Some of the most illustrious names in literature and politics are stoned: Papini, Albertini, Bonomi, Salvemini, Salandra, Bracco and others, but it is with Benedetto Croce that Settimelli and Musacchio go beyond all limits, with vulgar definitions and that borders on the obscene. This book also became inconvenient for fascism which had ideologically "commissioned" it. The phrase "Whoever votes against us is either an imbecile or a rogue" is famous.
