Berlusconi: The Epic Story of the Billionaire Who Took Over Italy by Alan Friedman
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Friedman delivers quite a neutral and insightful look at the life (and the making) of one of key figures that have shaped up present day Europe. On the pages, Berlusconi the Showman, the “natural-born seducer”, appears as both larger-than-life but also extremely human and somewhat misguided in his ambitions – a feat that only good biographies accomplish. This may be a must-read for anyone interested in understanding more the current situation of Europe and the world…
