Book Description

Publisher's Summary

Direct democracy can no longer be thought of as something that belongs
to the future.... This is the scarcely believable story of how, in just
over three years, a political dotcom grew to become one of the most
powerful forces in the affairs of a country of 60 million people. At

which has its headquarters on a website, took a quarter of the vote



his movement was able to block the formation of a new government, paralyzing
the politics of the nation for more than two months.

In a fast-moving narrative, John Hooper tells the story of how an unlikely
partnership between an angry, exhibitionist comedian and a retiring
Web consultant took Italy by storm.

Drawing on extensive interviews with Grillo and his publicity-shy co-founder,

giddying rise and highlights both its revolutionary aspirations and
inherent contradictions. He considers whether Grillo is - as the German
magazine Der Spiegel branded him - "the most dangerous man Europe",
or the pioneer of a digital transformation that will change all of our
lives.

John Hooper is Italy Correspondent of the Economist and Southern Europe
Editor of the Guardian. He has reported for almost 25 years from the
countries of the Mediterranean. His book, The Spaniards (since revised
and updated as The New Spaniards) won the Allen Lane Award for a best
first work of nonfiction. Hooper is also the author of the best-selling
Kindle Single Fatal Voyage, which tells the story of the wrecking of
the Costa Concordia and was described in The New York Times as "equal
parts thriller and elegy".
