«Alla fine di ogni cosa. Romanzo di uno zingaro» is the biographical novel by Mauro Garofalo, published in hardcover by Sperling & Kupfer (253 pages).
Novel about Johann 'Rukeli' Trollmann, a Gypsy boxer in 1930s Germany. The Nazi regime stripped him of his champion title because of his origins; he responded by stepping into the ring with his body dusted with flour and his hair dyed blond, parodying the Aryan ideal. Garofalo blends biography and fiction to portray his dignity in the face of persecution.
Text in Italian. First edition published in 2016 in the Frassinelli Italian fiction collection.
Aimed at readers of biographical and historical fiction, boxing fans, and those interested in the history of Nazi persecution.
