Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A New Statesman Book of the Year"Reveals how ideology corrupts the truth, how untrammeled ambition destroys the soul, and how the vanity of white male supremacy distorts emotion, making even love a matter of state."-Sonia Purnell, author of A Woman of No Importance"The brilliance of de Grazi…a's book lies in the way that she has made a page-turner of Teruzzi's chaotic life, while providing a scholarly and engrossing portrait of the two decades of Fascist rule."-Caroline Moorhead, Wall Street Journal"Extraordinary illuminates the ways in which the all-consuming nature of fascism distorted Italian society and destroyed the lives of individuals. I could not put it down."-Margaret MacMillan, author of Paris 1919"Original and important De Grazia's attention to Teruzzi's private life, his behavior as suitor and husband, deepens and enriches our understanding of the nature of leadership in Mussolini's regime and of masculinity, virility, and honor in Italian fascist culture."-Robert O. Paxton, author of The Anatomy of Fascism"Original, thoughtful, and timely Its two entwined narratives-one political and public, the other personal and private-perfectly complement one another and help us understand why the personal is political for those who insist on reshaping people and society."-Azar Nafisi, author of Reading Lolita in TehranWhen Attilio Teruzzi, a decorated military officer, married a rising American opera star, his good fortune seemed settled. The wedding was capped with a blessing by Mussolini himself. Yet only three years later, the early convert to the Fascist cause, now commander of the Black Shirts, renounced his wife. Lilliana was Jewish, and fascist Italy would soon introduce its first race laws.The Perfect Fascist pivots from the intimate story of a tempestuous courtship and inconvenient marriage to the operatic spectacle of Mussolini's rise and fall. It invites us to see in the vain, unscrupulous, fanatically loyal Attilio Teruzzi an exemplar of fascism's New Man. De Grazia's landmark history shows how the personal is always political in the fascist quest for manhood and power. In his self-serving pieties and intimate betrayals, his violence and opportunism, Teruzzi was a forefather of the illiberal politicians of today. Attilio Teruzzi, Mussolinis commander of the Black Shirts, exemplified fascisms obsession with male strength. Through the story of his broken marriage to a young Jewish American opera star, Victoria de Grazia explores the cult of masculinity on which the New Rome was to be built, revealing the seductive appeal of fascism.
