Milano, 1929, 8vo stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 1290/1298 con 8 illustrazioni fotografiche. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo, completo in se, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perché ci è sconosciuta. - !!

If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

Alex Ameno, un uomo dal passato burrascoso - terrorismo e intelligence oppresso dal suo vissuto di ex contestatore e da un sistema abrasivo nei confronti di qualsiasi vero antagonista, insegue una giovane brasiliana a Rio, dove tra sesso estremo, ritmi di samba e macumba e la frequentazione della mala carioca, viene coinvolto nella "guerra civile delle favelas" e sogna di organizzare un attentato.
