‘Wagging tails’ and ‘wagging tongues’
Mark Montebello, the friar and philosopher, is at it again.
His monumental tome about ‘The life and struggles of Dom Mintoff’ took seven years in the making. This is attested by the author himself. It surfaced in the local market in June 2021. It is heavily annotated.
Throughout its 640 pages, there are miles and miles of minutely printed detailed sources. These are to be read through aided by a strong magnifying glass if the reader wants to respect his/her eyesight.
The furore ignited by the popular and populist local printed media arising from the listed salacious references about Dom’s libido should only be a tangential aspect in this study of the man and myth.
