Mafia Vendetta
Author: Leonardo Sciascia
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Italian fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
In Italian cultural and political discussions, "the problem of the South" occurs as frequently as it does in America, though with quite a different meaning. Inevitably, such discussions must include Sicily, the island that gave to the languages of the world the two words which form the American title of Leonardo Sciascia's novella, along with that nearly untranslatable word omertd. The Italian South (and, especially, Sicily) means crime and violence and the corruption of public justice by a secret organization which cannot even be proved to exist -- since the code of omerto (which means, literally, "connivance") binds even the innocent to what Signor Sciascia calls "the conspiracy of silence." Americans were familiar with the impact of Sicily upon our own crime and justice long before last fall's news stories on the Cosa Nostra -- but when this little book appeared in ItaIy, it created a public sensation, even though the author's afterword describes the care with which he tried to conform

Book Description
Being smart doesn’t save you from terror and doesn't teach you how to live with it. You can’t escape the mob. It’s part of your existence! Vito has grown up in the underworld of the mob. He has recently reached age eighteen. His family has been involved since the thirties. In 2014, the rules haven’t changed much. What worked then, works now; power, violence, and loyalty. Love isn’t something you can control. As much as Vito, mobster enforcer, wish he could, he can’t. And falling in love with someone who is close to jail-bait age is even tougher. Vito bides his time and waits. For a hasty guy with limited self-control, it’s difficult to curb his impulses. At age fifteen, Erin just wants to forget. Erin’s world came crashing down when she learned her family was not what they seemed. She’s been living in a lie. No one told her her family was mob. The cliché ignorance is bliss becomes a sharp stabbing realization when she has to learn to cope with the aftermath. “Sometimes I hear him whispering in my ear as if my conscience has grown and matured into a six foot three dark haired male. The studying, reading, and listening I did to impress adults are nothing compared to what I learned from Vito.” ~ Erin New Adult Contemporary Mafia Romance Novel mobster romance books, organized crime romance, mafia romance novels, free ebooks store, new adult contemporary romance novel, free mobster book, mobsters and gangsters

Lanza's Mob
Author: Christina Ann-Marie DiEdoardo
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1440842175
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Presenting sociological as well as historical perspectives, this book supplies readers with a fascinating, unprecedented look at the most successful organized-crime family they've probably never heard of. From the 1920s until the early 21st century, one Sicilian mob family defied everyone from the California attorney general to J. Edgar Hoover to chart their own American Dream. Unlike their flashier rivals in New York and Chicago who met their end by the knife, the bullet, or a judge's gavel, this crime family prospered and grew alongside their adopted home of San Francisco. This book tells how they did it. Readers will learn how the Lanzas managed to retain control of their patch from the end of Prohibition through the Summer of Love and into the beginnings of the dot-com era, gaining insight into not only what the west-coast branch of the Mob did, but also why they did it. The documentation of how this mostly unknown crime syndicate formed, evolved, and eventually folded is set against the backdrop of the city of San Francisco transforming itself from a gritty port and manufacturing hub dominated by Italian- and Irish-Americans into the multicultural intellectual and services capital it is today.

Publisher: Vintage Crime/Black Lizard
ISBN: 0307822508
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
In Italian police inspector Aurelio Zen, Michael Dibdin has given the mystery one of its most complex and compelling protagonists: a man wearily trying to enforce the law in a society where the law is constantly being bent. In this, the first novel he appears in, Zen himself has been assigned to do some law bending. Officials in a high government ministry want him to finger someone--anyone--for the murder of an eccentric billionaire, whose corrupt dealings enriched some of the most exalted figures in Italian politics.But Oscar Burolo's murder would seem to be not just unsolvable but impossible. The magnate was killed on a heavily fortified Sardinian estate, where every room was monitored by video cameras. Those cameras captured Burolo's grisly death, but not the face of his killer. And that same killer, elusive, implacable, and deranged, may now be stalking Zen. Inexorable in its suspense, superbly atmospheric, Vendetta is further proof of Dibdin's mastery of the crime novel.
