SHOUT IT OUT! 28 PORTRAITS FOR A COMMITTED WORLD : LIVES THAT HAVE TRANSFORMED ME, FROM ANTIQUITY TO
Εκδότης Seven Stories Press , ISBN 9781644215425
From the author of the groundbreaking exposé Gomorrah comes a book that encourages and challenges the people to stand up for themselves and to not be fooled by the coercive nature of political power.
Featuring short biographical sketches of a surprising mix of admired and deplored figures and works from history, this is a book that demands of readers to open one's eyes and be outraged.
The iconic Italian author Roberto Saviano's latest work of nonfiction is an urgent cry for people to stand up for themselves and the things they believe in, featuring those who have most inspired him-Russian poet Anna Akhmatova, Martin Luther King Jr., the Calipygian Venus, immortalized in marble-alongside those whose actions were most deplorable-Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels and Rwandan radio host Kantano Habimana, who encouraged the 1993-'94 genocide there.
Saviano quotes the Italian author and Auschwitz survivor Primo Levi: "I write what I wouldn't be able to tell anyone." Saviano, like Levi, embraces his readers within a similar protective halo of intimacy, taking us in his arms to warn us.
