Publisher's summary

Quattromila anni di storia in quattrocento pagine, senza ridurli a un arido elenco di date e di nomi. Impossibile? Tutt'altro: in questa Breve storia d'Italia Alfio Caruso fonde documentazione e divulgazione, raccontando l'Italia attraverso i personaggi, le mode, i costumi, le invenzioni.

I grandi eventi si intrecciano alle minuzie quotidiane, i grandi uomini emergono da piccoli episodi, senza tacere dei loro lati meno onorevoli: il ruolo fondamentale di Nerone per la diffusione del Cristianesimo; la sola volta in cui Leonardo e Michelangelo si sfiorarono dandosi volutamente le spalle; l'unico incontro tra Manzoni e Leopardi (che non si piacquero) e molto altro.

Un affresco di questa complessa realtà chiamata Italia, e un modo efficace per trovare nel passato le ragioni del presente.

4000 years in a few hours

The content was good, but I have to take issue with the reader's speed - it was really hard to keep pace with the velocity given all the dates and names and locations mentioned throughout the book. To be clear, the narrator was very clear in his speech, but even as a native speaker I struggled to keep up...it was like a relentless machine reading at exaggerated speed.

Uno dei migliori libri che abbia mai letto.

Libro spettacolare. Presenta una visione ampia e temporale dell'Italia.
Potrei solo dire qualcosa in più sul grande esodo italiano. Soprattutto per le Americhe.
