The Rage and the Pride

Posted on 05 September 2017 by Oriana Fallaci

With The Rage and the Pride Oriana Fallaci breaks a ten year silence The silence she kept until September 11 s apocalypse in her Manhattan house She breaks it with a deafening noise In Europe this book has caused and causes a turmoil never registered in decades Polemics, discussion, debates, hearty consents and praises, wild attacks With her well known courage Oriana Fallaci faces the themes unchained by the Islamic terrorism the contrast and, in her opinion, incompatibility between the Islamic world and the Western world the global reality of the Jihad and the lack of response, the lenience of the West With her brutal sincerity she hurls pitiless accusations, vehement invectives, and denounces the uncomfortable truths that all of us know but never dare to express With her rigorous logic, lucidity of mind, she defends our culture and blames what she calls our blindness, our deafness, our masochism, the conformism and the arrogance of the Politically Correct With the poetry of a prophet like a modern Cassandra she says it in the form of a letter addressed to all of us.The text is enriched by a dramatic preface in which Oriana Fallaci reveals how The Rage and the Pride was born, grew up, and detachedly calls it my small book In addition, a preface in which she tells significant episodes of her extraordinary life and explains her unreachable isolation, her demanding and inflexible choices Because of this too, what she calls my small book is in reality a great book A precious book, a book that shakes our conscience It is also the portrait of a soul Her soul No doubt it will remain as a thorn pierced inside our brains and our hearts.

Fallaci shinest the light of the truth and candid scrutiny on her country and the world breaking a ten year silence after the horrific terrorist attacks in New York on September 11, 2001.A modern day version of Emile Zola s J Accuse, Fallaci steps in boldly where most fear to tread, exposing the truths that all of us know but all fear to speak Fallaci writes that this book was an effort to open the eyes of those who do not want to see, to unplug the ear With a rare courage and honesty, Oriana Fallaci shinest the light of the truth and candid scrutiny on her country and the world breaking a

that I agree with everything Fallaci has to say, or even muchthan a slight majority of it, but that what she has to say is so important, and that so many people have tried so hard to keep her from saying it This book an expansion of the themes of a newspaper column she wrote in immediate, angry response to the September 11 attacks is not a coolly articulat What to say about this book Other than

September 11 attacks is not a coolly articulated treatise by any stretch of the imagination It is, rather, the very definition of a polemic, a war tract Fallaci has seen her culture and way of life attacked, and she is fighting mad Her anger reflects littlesubtlety than that of the rebellious teenager wh...Not to take the slightest credit away from Aayan Ali Hirsi or Mark Steyn or any other writers commentators of that ilk, but Fallaci was one of the very first to go there Her unstintingly honest, remarkably courageous portrait of radical Islam in the wake of 9 11 was one of the first to point out the profound inc...When I started reading this book, I did not realize that the author, Oriana Fallaci, died over a decade ago In fact, I didn t know much about her at all She definitely had

chador, a stupid, medieval rag Fallaci spent her last years between her native Tuscany and New York City The U.S was her adopted homeland and she loved it dearly She wrote this book after the horrific

to those that she refers to as the cicadas the politically correct elite This was entertaining to...I truly admire this woman for speaking up when it put her on the death list for radical Muslims She

attentati dell 11 settembre 2001, in cui la guerrafondaia Fallaci si scaglia con odio verso i musulmani, raggruppati nella figura del nemico da distruggere prima che distrugga noi, secondo una
