Description
Summary:In this rare interview Romano Mussolini talks candidly about life with his father. He provides us with a fresh and unexpectedly 'homely' vision of the Duce, and speaks warmly of family life in the Mussolini household. Romano Mussolini places great emphasis on the complexity of his father's character, and, in particular, on the great disparity between the public and the private figure. He finally appears to lay to rest the question both of his father's long lost personal diary, and that of the Churchill-Mussolini correspondence. It is an interview that provides rare insights into a highly controversial historical figure.
