Margherita Grassini Sarfatti's essayistic biography entitled The Life of Mussolini, written in 1924 and published in Hungarian in 1927, translated by Dezső Kosztolányi, aims to present the path of the popular leader, who exchanged the ideal of socialist solidarity for a fascist dictatorship and later became a pro-Hitler, from his birth to his seizure of power - one-sided, sympathetic and clearly with propagandistic purposes.
