Valerio Evangelisti – We Shall be All

 

A past without clean slate

Thirty years of American syndicalism seen through the eyes of Eddie Florio, a man for sale, with neither scruples or moral. From Roosevelt to McCarthy, from the first unions’ demands to Martin Luther King. Evangelisti, synthetic and compelling, remains one of the best Italian living storytellers.

Translation by Anna Anzani (edited by Chiara Canova and Robert Mardle)
