Remembering Dario Fo, 1926-2016

Playwright, anarchist, Nobel laureate - Dario Fo was a giant of Italian theatre before he died aged 90. He was also an actor, director and political campaigner, and is best known for his stinging 1970 satire "Accidental Death of an Anarchist". The novelist and critic Enrico Palandri tells Dan Damon about the man who was frequently outcast by the authorities in Italy.
