The Strega Prize was born with a clear poetic mission: to reward literary courage. And its first winner, Ennio Flaiano, perfectly embodies this ambition. Tempo di uccidere is a stark, unsettling novel that explores the dark side of human consciousness through Italy’s colonial experience in Ethiopia. Flaiano creates a protagonist crushed by guilt, fear, and the absurdity of war, offering the reader a relentless reflection on moral fragility. His writing is sharp, almost cinematic, able to evoke the dust, the heat, the anguish of the Africa imagined by Italians of the time. The novel marks a break from the celebratory literature of the previous decades: here there is no heroism, only fallibility and a fractured humanity. Flaiano inaugurates the Strega Prize in the name of painful clarity and intelligence. His victory remains symbolic: post-war Italy was finally ready to face itself.
