With appearances on television and even his own TV show There Is So Much More, hosted by ratings queen Irene Moors, his success seemed unstoppable.

Still, he retained a loyal following behind the scenes.

Dopo 45 anni, nella coscienza collettiva degli italiani, la strage di Bologna del 2 agosto 1980 si è stabilizzata e, forse, incancrenita, come un atto di inaudita barbarie, ma comunque isolato e reso possibile solo grazie al fanatismo ideologico di alcuni terroristi “estremi”. Insomma, le solite “schegge impazzite”. Dimenticano, gli italiani, che 36 giorni prima si era perpetrata la strage di Ustica, e che la pressoché totale coincidenza temporale dei due eventi si inserisce...

Questo libro è stato pubblicato per la prima volta (2024) col titolo di "Il libro di Ester". Questa seconda edizione, in cui sono stati rivisti alcuni errori e refusi di poco conto, porta, nel titolo modificato, il nome e il cognome completi di chi è stata vittima di un crimine tanto efferato quanto dimenticato e sfruttato. Si perde, e non vi sono dubbi, la biblicità del titolo originario, ma si recupera l'identità, unica e individuale della bella persona che fu tolta a tutta la comunità abruzzese. E il modo ancor ci offende. O dovrebbe offenderci ancora e ancora.
