I have a book out in less than four weeks, and I'm being a bit too relaxed about it. Apparently, it has a 4.7 on Netgalley and more pre-orders than any of my other books, so I should probably shout about it. It's twisty and dark.

Cover of Ruth Ben-Ghiat's book "Strongmen: Mussolini to the Present." The cover features a striking image: a large, solid red silhouette of a man with his arm outstretched in a commanding gesture, superimposed over a grainy black and white photograph of a dense crowd of people. The title "STRONGMEN" is prominently displayed in bold, white capital letters. Below the silhouette, the subtitle reads "Mussolini to the Present" in smaller, red letters. A quote from Timothy Snyder is also visible: "A timely analysis of how a certain kind of charisma delivers political disaster.
