In December 1913, the New York World newspaper published the first crossword in history. It appeared in their Sunday supplement, Fun. A century later, this absorbing puzzle continues to attract (and infuriate) millions of devotees every day. But the worlds most popularand seemingly mundanepastime has a surprising history, filled with intrigue and adventure. Paolo Bacilieris FUN transports us from turn-of-the-century New York to present-day Milan, taking in stories of ingenious puzzle makers, ardent solvers, and intellectual luminaries. Part detective story, part docudrama, and interlaced with a fiction of Bacilieris own imagining, FUN questions the crosswords harmless status. Sure, its funbut could it also be a form of resistance, of cryptic communication, of espionage?
