Lucio Magri 
The Tailor of Ulm [EPUB ebook] 
A History of Communism

Support

The Italian Communist Party was once one of the most powerful and vibrant parties of the West. In this detailed and probing work, Lucio Magri, one of the towering intellectual figures of the Italian left, assesses the causes for its demise. The PCI survived almost a century of Italian history, from its founding in 1921 to the partisan resistance, the turning point of Salerno in 1944 to the de-Stalinization of 1956, the long ’68 to the ‘historic compromise, ‘ and to the opportunity – missed forever – of democratic transformation.
With rigor and passion,
The Tailor of Ulm merges an original and enlightening interpretation of Italian communism with the experience of a militant ‘heretic’ into a riveting read – capable of broadening our insights into contemporary Italy and the twentieth-century communist experience.
