Is it possible to create an enjoyable and mysterious history of literature? Every author—novelist, philosopher, poet, or essayist—has any enigma to offer or reveal, either about their lives or about their works. For instance, do we know exactly where Cervantes was born? Are we sure that Conan Doyle was not a murderer? Why did Comte decide to create his own religion? Did Jose Cadalso exhume his girlfriend's corpse? Was Corneille Moiré's ghostwriter? Was Berbiguier harassed by imps? Maybe Jules Verne did belong to a secret society. Have any works been inspired by dreams—or by insanity?...

Los cinco ensayos que componen este libro analizan el proceso de adhesión al fascismo de las colectividades italianas como un aspecto crucial de la historia de los países de la región e indispensable para entender tanto la coyuntura entre las dos guerras mundiales como los eventos posbélicos.
