E la morte di Berlinguer fu causa di dolore non solo per chi condivideva le sue idee, ma anche per chi le avversava. Questo audiolibro racconta le ragioni di quel dolore collettivo, ma soprattutto cerca di restituire ciò che di esemplare, unico, valido ancora e soprattutto oggi, resta dell'eredità politica del segretario del Partito comunista italiano.
