The book delves into the complex relationship between prominent Western intellectuals and authoritarian leaders, examining the admiration and reverence these thinkers often express for ruthless dictators. It investigates the historical and philosophical underpinnings of this phenomenon, shedding light on the contradictions and moral dilemmas faced by those who idolize power despite its often brutal exercise. Through this exploration, the narrative challenges readers to reconsider the nature of authority and the intellectual justifications for tyranny.
