After a ruinous engagement, the unnamed narrator alights for Palermo in order to take up with his dead Italian friend, Antonio Gramsci. He was the primal scene of Italy’s Communist party, and for his tireless reporting and befriending the working class he was jailed for over a decade. The state would ruin his body but not his analysis of power, which he poured into 20 notebooks. This philosophical travelogue, a nomadology of resistance and digression, searches citizen faces in order to find the origins of culture.
