Miss Fallaci by Miriam Leone

A figure full of facets and also of contradictions, that of the writer and journalist that Leone called “a great international icon”. In Italy above all, Fallaci has sometimes aroused controversies even of a political nature, but from politics he actually wanted to remain far awayeven if she was a woman of strong ideal beliefs, who reflected in many life choices: «Oriana Fallaci defined themselves absolutely apolitical. One of the most important things, which we also remember in the series is that Oriana Fallaci also did the resistance, it was a partisan relay ».
