One of my favorite books is The Leopard by Guiseppe Lampedusa. It was made into a great movie in 1963 and more recently a series on Netflix. It is all about the previous century’s transition from monarchy to democracy, specifically in Italy. Always a good read, but maybe especially good in times of change like today. A good article from The Guardian that applies the situation and lessons of The Leopard to Europe today.
