n una versione ampiamente rivista e significativamente arricchita, il libro propone tutti i temi affrontati da Saviano nei suoi monologhi: l'importanza dell'Unità d'Italia, il subdolo meccanismo della diffamazione, l'espansione delle mafie al Nord, la battaglia per la vita condotta da Piergiorgio Welby, l'infinita "emergenza" dei rifiuti a Napoli, la sfida senz'armi di don Giacomo Panizza alla 'ndrangheta calabrese, la tragedia annunciata del terremoto a L'Aquila, il dovere di difendere la Costituzione.

Il risultato è un serratissimo ritratto dell'Italia di oggi: accanto alla denuncia delle ferite vecchie e nuove che affliggono il nostro Paese, c'è ilò racconto - commosso e ammirato - di vite vissute con onestà e coraggio, esempi su cui possiamo ancora contare per combattere il male, risollevarci e costruire un'Italia diversa.
