In 1938 the Sicilian Ettore Majorana left suicide notes, caught the steamer from Naples for Palermo and disappeared. Aged 32, he was one of the very few physicists left in Italy and Germany capable of solving the problems of nuclear fission. Investigating the episode 35 years later, Sciascia asked: Did he, really commit suicide, or did he foresee the possibility of an atom bomb in the hands of Mussolini and Hitler and choose to disappear? If so, where?
