El nuevo libro de Luca Costantini es la crónica y la investigación más completa de la persona y el personaje, de su realidad diurna y nocturna, así como de sus intensas contradicciones, pero también del poder mediático y la opinión pública que quisieron hacer de él algo distinto. Esta es la historia de una personalidad aparentemente plana que se revela cada vez más compleja y con más aristas a medida que avanzan las páginas. Un relato único para entender la política de los últimos años en España y lo que puede hacer con quienes ambicionan el poder a toda costa.

Barack Obama didn’t break the system. He mastered it. This is not a tribute. And it’s not a takedown. It’s a clear-eyed walk through one of the most disciplined presidencies in American history. From a kid with no defined center to a commander-in-chief who made calm look presidential and control look easy. He didn’t storm in with fire. He played the long game. He passed healthcare reform when everyone said it couldn’t be done. He ordered drone strikes with surgical silence. He addressed racism while trying not to set the country on fire.

Traversing more than seven hundred years of Roman history, this book explores how everyday Romans swapped gossip, spread rumors, told jokes, and chanted protests about their emperors—activity that amounted to much more than idle chatter. Caillan Davenport uses ancient evidence, including letters, graffiti, and songs, to reveal how Romans engaged in politics outside the senate house or imperial council. He argues that the idea of the Roman emperor was shaped not only by the political powers granted to him but also by the debate taking place in the streets, churches, taverns, and markets.
