Senator Franca Rame, wife of Italian pla

Rome, ITALY: Senator Franca Rame, wife of Italian playwrite and 1997 Nobel literature laureate, Dario Fo, is pictured after Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi survived the confidence vote by 162 to 157 at the Senate in Rome, 28 February 2007. Prodi’s disparate centre-left coalition, which won a general election 10 months ago by a hair’s breadth, was thrown into crisis last week when it lost a vote of confidence on foreign policy issues.
