In March 1978, the Red Brigades kidnapped the Christian Democratic politician Aldo Moro, an event that shocked Italy. Leonardo Sciascia, then a deputy of the Radical Party, participated in the parliamentary commission that investigated the events. In August 1978, he wrote 'The Moro Affair'. From the letters written by Moro during his captivity, Sciascia interprets with rigor and insight, reconstructing a web of thoughts and events that offers a deep understanding of this terrible episode in Italian history. This edition by Tusquets Editores features a translation by Juan Manuel Salmerón.
