Was the disfigured body hanging head down, with the body of Claretta Petacci, in Piazzale Loreto in Milan the real body of Il Duce? Or was it perhaps Mussolini’s double? Based on available documents on which historiography relied, the body was indeed that of Benito Mussolini.

In fact, the intent in establishing Domani is not to make it a true newspaper, but for its publisher (Commendatore Vimercate) to use it as a tool for gaining access into a restricted circle of people from the worlds of finance, banking, and journalism, in case he were denied access into the circle by its members. The plot is centered on the attempt to establish a new daily newspaper ( Domani) by a group of failed journalists who will initially work on 12 zero issues (experimental issues) that will not appear in print since the paper will never in fact be published. Umberto Eco’s latest novel Numero zero is a historical novel with satirical overtones.
