Alfonso Reyes afirmó sobre esta obra: "Por primera vez se incorpora a la ya importante bibliografía del asunto la documentación secreta de ciertos archivos europeos, y singularmente del que dejó el propio Maximiliano".

El título de la obra procede de El antimonio, un relato del escritor siciliano Leonardo Sciascia que apareció en la segunda edición de su libro Los tíos de Sicilia, publicada en 1960. En dicho relato se describe de forma sintética y lírica el cerco de Madrid por los fascistas italianos en 1937. El estudio de la novela de Sciascia se completa con el examen de otros testimonios sobre la guerra civil española, en particular las narraciones de autores como Antonio Tabucchi, Carlo Lucarelli, Bruno Arpaia y Fabrizia Ramondino.
