Eppure non tutti credono che si tratti di una fatalità, e forse c'è molto di più da sapere sul "fascista scomodo" che lo stesso Mussolini descriverà come l'unico uomo che sarebbe stato in grado di ucciderlo.

In der entferntesten unwirtlichsten Ecke Ungarns, nahe der slowakischen Grenze, erheben sich auf einem Ausläufer der Kleinen Karpaten dunkel und drohend die Überreste von Schloss Csejthe. Im Inneren der Ruine befindet sich ein zugemauerter Raum, der die sterbliche Hülle der Blutgräfin vor den Blicken der Neugierigen verbirgt. Nebenan liegt der Eingang zu einem unterirdischen Gewölbe, dessen eiserne Tür jahrhundertelang verschlossen blieb, bis der Rost das Schloss zerfraß.

Schneidender Herbstwind fegte über das schottische Hochland, jagte düstere Wolken über Hügel und Wälder. Miriam riskierte es, aus ihrem Versteck hochzukommen. Jeder Schritt durch das Unterholz bereitete ihr unsagbare Mühen. In diesem Moment scholl ein langgezogenes schauriges Heulen durch die Dunkelheit. Sie schrie auf. Das Blut gefror ihr in den Adern. Es hatte wie das Heulen eines Wolfes geklungen.

This short volume has turned out to be merely a handful of recollections of well-remembered times and stories - some probably misremembered, too - and a few people who have played a crucial part in my life. And some confessions: I have never before tried to write about my doll phobia, for instance, or about the effect synaesthesia has had over the years. I can only hope that this collection of stories from times past might give some idea of a mostly happy life that has gone, and is going, much too fast.
