Wow, what a book this one written by Enrico Deaglio Cose
che Voi Umani. Deaglio lives in San Francisco since 2012: he is an acute, tremendous observer of the American reality, always more divided, complex and fragmented.
If you want to understand what the USA became with the time, you must add this book to the list of your readings, because it is simply magnificient.
One of the biggest problems in the USA is...GOD! or better, a "certain" idea of God, seen as a sort of flag for the most terrifying events, let's say the entity used from people for trying to reach their private and public interests.
Yes, we must say that there is not just the danger of an islamic extremistic religion: in the USA the idea of God became with the time always more contorted and...dangerous thanks to advent of sects as the one of Waco and the birth with the time, of new weird religious leaders.
The book starts with a deflagrating event that we had all seen last January 6th 2021 in the Congress of the USA: people worn as Vikings, entered in that democratic place with belligerant purposes. At that time the President Donald Trump had instructed all these people asking to them of doing this during a final encounter with them, where, he insisted, he had won the election.
There is also, with them, the story starts here, a once pacifical attorney, who, with the time became fixated with guns, and terrified (he voted in the past for the left), by the idea that the same left would have destroy all his dreams of keeping in his house war guns, changed his mind (we are in the profound South of the Usa).
He joined slowly slowly certain movements and with a brain washing became the person who decided to go to the Congress fighting for the cause of Trump.
Tony is in pension and when understands that his cousin has been arrested and relatives ask for his help, he is skeptical. He is a Biden supporter and plus...Why his cousin became in this way? What is there behind? Tony in the while starts to work for the New Orion a society that is in grade to tell the story of every person, or fact with extreme precision. This new work could be helpful also for trying to understand what there was in the mind of his cousin when decided to attack the Congress.
And, starting from these considerations we will analyze a nation, the USA seen in futuristic books, I won't tell you which ones, because created killers as well, as a nazi nation; a place where the multi-culturalism wouldn't exist. We will go in Russia, when at the beginning of 1900 the Romanov were killed and a new power, the Communism became the reality: with its rigidity Communism killed more than 20 innocent million of souls during the hardest decades of the regime.
We will see Lenin compared to Trump, reading analogies with the rest of his key men: the message of Francesco, the bishop of Rome, the Pope who recommended to the Americans a good vote because the danger of an escalation of hate and racism was just behind the door. A news, strangely that no one reported.
We will read what Arnold Schwarzenegger said to the media immediately after the chaos to the Capitol Hill. Republican, he is one of the main oppositors of Donald Trump. He can't be elected in the USA, because he is not born in the USA.
Enrico wont forget to explain us in detail what happened at George Floyd: the video realized by a teen-ager, the fury of the masses for another man killed because of the color of his skin.
And we are back to the reality, a reality where we see the cousin of Tony out of jail but with the order of following the trial of Floyd, writing down the impressions. Not that he had changed his mind.
I considered important chapters also the ones in grade to reconnect events like the terrible Oklahoma city's terroristic attack with the one of the Twin Towers, caused just 3 months after the execution of the killer of that attack.
The USA is more mysterious than what we can think 🤔.
A book that you can't lose!
Highly highly recommended.
I thank Marsilio for the physical copy of the book.
