What is this book about?

Inseparabili tells the story of the brothers Filippo and Samuel Pontecorvo. It is the sequel to Persecuzione, which centred on their father, and is set twenty-five years later. Filippo has had sudden, unexpected success: a comic strip of his has been turned into a celebrated film.

Its subject, violence against children across times and places, provokes outrage from extremist groups and heavy criticism from others. Samuel, meanwhile, has become a businessman. The narrator’s identity is kept secret until the end of the book.
