Storia proibita dell'America

(The Forbidden Story of America)

Ugo Guanda Editore, November 2015, pp.192

The story of a tribe of Native Americans who never gave up: an incredible story of resistance told by one of the great rebels of our times.

Hollywood films generally tell the story of defeated Indians. None of them has ever told the story of the only tribe that never gave up: the Seminole. Yet the Seminole society was ahead of its time in many ways; it was matriarchal and pacifist, and an enemy of slavery. This is a story packed with adventures with unforgettable characters. Like John Horse whose astuteness was legendary, and who was capable for example of selling the same two tortoises to a Yankee General thirty times over. Or Mae Tiger, a mixed blood leader who organized the cultural, economic not to mention military resistance. O James Billie, a veteran Seminole from Vietnam who had to face his worst enemy, drugs, when he returned to his country and defended his tribe by dismantling the drug cartels.
Three great wars were fought against the Americans, and they took place at different times and on different fronts with very different strategies. These wars were all fought against overwhelming odds, and none of them was lost. An incredible story of human and community resistance, told by one of the great rebels of our times.

Dario Fo

Dario Fo (1926-2016) graduated from the Accademia delle Belle Arti di Brera in Milano, and emerged in Italy’s cultural circles, especially those linked to the theatre, where he became a great maestro thanks to his strong satirical skills and the farcical nature of his texts. This signature style characterized his entire career, which culminated in 1997 when he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The public in Italy and abroad has always welcomed the political satire and the folk backdrop that dominated all of his works.
