«Senior Service» is the biography of publisher Giangiacomo Feltrinelli written by his son Carlo Feltrinelli, published by Tusquets Editores in paperback (432 pages, in Spanish).
Carlo Feltrinelli reconstructs his father's life, from a solitary childhood to his death in 1972 as a left-wing terrorist, and presents him as an example of the effects of revolutionary thought on European intellectuals of the 1960s and 1970s. The book includes correspondence with authors such as Pasternak, Lampedusa and García Márquez, and unpublished documents on his political activities, his relationship with the Italian Communist Party, and his links with Fidel Castro and Che in Bolivia.
The title, evoking the brand of cigarettes Giangiacomo smoked, also pays tribute to the paternal figure. The work is part of the Tiempo de Memoria collection from Tusquets Editores, published in 2001.
Aimed at readers interested in biographies of the publishing world and in twentieth-century European political history, as well as in the figure of Giangiacomo Feltrinelli.
