But what at first seems a stroke of good fortune soon leads Raja to recount and relive the very disasters and past betrayals he wishes to leave behind.Wickedly funny, heartbreaking, and told in Raja's irresistible voice, The True, True Story of Raja the Gullible dances across six decades to tell the unforgettable story of a singular life and its absurdities - a tale of mistakes, self-discovery, trauma, and maybe even forgiveness.

In un futuro molto simile al nostro presente lItalia e governata da un non-partito nato in Internet che ha vinto le elezioni promettendo una democrazia diretta e onesta grazie al web. Leonardo e Camilla sono giovani e laureati, e in quellItalia vogliono costruirsi una vita. Hanno votato entrambi per il movimento e nei loro progetti ce anche lacquisto di una casa. Le condizioni proibitive dei mutui sembrano essere un ostacolo fino a quando Leonardo riesce a ottenere un tasso agevolato. È unoperazione legale, che Leonardo e Camilla condividono sul forum del movimento. Ben presto fraintendimenti e rigidita ideologiche trasformano la vicenda in uno scandalo. Fra invidie e travisamenti Camilla e Leonardo faranno i conti con la mentalita dellalveare: una rete in cui tutti indagano, accusano, giudicano, e quasi nessuno ascolta prima di condannare.
