A new edition of Il messaggero is coming out. This is the very personal literary reappraisal of Muhammed’s life by Kader Abdolah. In this book, the writer tells us about the complexity of a human, religious and political adventure that the West cannot ignore and which we can approach through the eyes of literature in an enticing cultural challenge.
