Il libro, uscito nel febbraio del 1977, nel pieno del movimento studentesco, è un celebre falso politico-editoriale. Sembra un volume del Nuovo Politecnico di Einaudi, ma ad una più attenta analisi ci si rende conto che è un po' più largo del normale e che il layout non è quello della casa editrice torinese. Falsa è anche la presentazione di Giulio Einaudi, che dichiara di voler inaugurare una nuova prassi editoriale volta alla divulgazione degli scritti privati di personaggi politici, in modo da svelarne i loro più schietti e diretti punti di vista. Il finto Berlinguer scrive in modo quasi fraterno ai vari leader della Nuova sinistra, a lui pubblicamente ostili. Ad essere sbeffeggiato non è soltanto l'allora segretario del Pci, che appare uno strenuo difensore del sistema, ma gli stessi "eretici" a cui le lettere sono indirizzate. I vari Marco Pannella, Goffredo Fofi, indiani metropolitani, Toni Negri vengono tutti descritti come finti oppositori, comodi alla perpetuazione dello stato di cose presenti e per questo ringraziati da Berlinguer. 16mo pp. XII+100 Brossura (wrappers) Fioriture ai tagli (Yellowing of edges) Molto Buono (Very Good)

Berlinguer was born on May 22, 1922, in Sassari, Sardinia, into a wealthy landowning family with a tradition of leftist politics. He was a son of Mario Berlinguer and Maria Loriga
In 1943 he joined the Italian Communist Party (PCI). The following year he was arrested for inciting a bread riot in Sassari, and he came to the attention of Palmiro Togliatti, national leader of the PCI. Under Togliatti's sponsorship, Berlinguer in late 1944 was named to the secretariat of the Young Communist Movement in Rome. In 1945 he was elected to the PCI central committee and put in charge of the party's youth division. In 1948 he was elevated to membership in the party executive committee. Between 1947 and 1956 he also served as secretary-general of the Italian Young Communist Federation. Berlinguer later held a succession of increasingly important posts in the PCI hierarchy. In February 1969 he was named deputy secretary-general of the party and became heir-apparent to the PCI leader Luigi Longo. He succeeded Longo in March 1972. In late 1973 Berlinguer proposed an "historic compromise" between the PCI and its long-time antagonist, the governing Christian Democratic Party. Communist participation in the national government was not achieved during Berlinguer's lifetime. However, the PCI became increasingly popular with Italian voters. After 1975 a majority of Italians lived in cities or regions governed by Communist-Socialist coalitions. Between 1976 and 1979 the Christian Democrat-led national government openly solicited and depended upon Communist parliamentary support, but after 1979 the PCI went back into opposition. Under Berlinguer's leadership the Italian Communists made it clear that they did not consider the Soviet Union to be an acceptable model of socialism. The PCI sharply condemned Soviet persecution of dissidents, the Soviet invasions of Czechoslovakia and Afghanistan, and the suppression of Solidarity, the independent Polish labor movement. On June 11, 1984, Berlinguer died in Padua from a stroke suffered while campaigning in elections for the Italian deputation to the European Parliament. In those elections the PCI gained a plurality of the vote, the first time it had ever won a nationwide election. Berlinguer's funeral was attended by nearly two million Italians.

(Book by Berlinguer, Enrico)
Berlinguer argued that a leftist government with a narrow majority and headed by the Communists could provoke a disastrous polarization in Italy. The Communists would therefore seek to govern in coalition with the Christian Democrats and smaller parties.
Berlinguer has been described in many ways, but he was generally recognised for political coherence and courage, together with a rare personal and political intelligence. A serious and morally rigorous man, he was sincerely respected even by his opponents.
He married Letizia Laurenti, they had 4 children.
