Les morts sont des invisibles, ils ne sont pas des absents. Dehors, il fait 5 °C, le temps est gris et venteux. Dans un instant, le prêtre va célébrer la messe d'enterrement de maman.

The short-lived Blitz club in London's Covent Garden was more than somewhere to hang out or be seen: it was a catalyst for cultural explosion, a counter-culture blast against everything Thatcher's leadership had ushered in by the dawn of the 80s. In Blitz, Elms reflects on a club night founded by working-class kids, one whose impact reverberated beyond its doors, through the worlds of Art, Literature, Fashion and Music, and into the present day.

A partire dagli episodi della sua vita famigliare, personale e professionale e con lo sguardo attento ai cambiamenti che stano stravolgendo la nostra immagine del mondo, Sallusti mostra in questo libro il punto di vista eretico di un liberal-conservatore abituato a sentirsi minoranza - spesso irrisa - nei salotti buoni della cultura dominante, e tuttavia consapevole di essere in sintonia con la maggioranza delle persone in Europa e in Occidente, come le elezioni si incaricano invariabilmente di dimostrare.
