The world according to Fo is a work that reproduces an extensive conversation between the journalist Giuseppina Manin and the renowned Italian Nobel Prize winner, Darío Fo. This memoir delves into the artist's intimate and personal sphere, revealing his most secret passions and stripping bare his weaknesses and melancholies with self-irony. Fo addresses topics such as politics, comedy, censorship, faith, religion, and commitment, offering a unique vision of his life and career. An essential work to understand the mind of one of the great geniuses of the 20th century.
Dario Luigi Angelo Fo was an Italian playwright, actor, theatre director, stage designer, songwriter, political campaigner for the Italian left wing and the recipient of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Literature. In his time he was "arguably the most widely performed contemporary playwright in world theatre". Much of his dramatic work depends on improvisation and comprises the recovery of "illegitimate" forms of theatre, such as those performed by giullari and, more famously, the ancient Italian style of commedia dell'arte.
