À propos de cet audio

The third installment in Mario Puzo's epic chronicle of the Corleone crime family - one of the most enduring lineages in American literature and cinema - achieves a stunning crescendo with a story that imagines the role of the Mafia in the assassination of a young, charismatic president.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Winegardner's deft plot-spinning is rivaled only by his sure grasp of Goodfellas mise-en-scene, the profanity-laced witticisms, the fashion fetishizing, the cool, long, dark '60s Chevy Biscaynes....A worthy addition to the chronicle of la famigilia Corleone." (Kirkus Reviews)

Continuing on the back of Returns, this book very much focuses more on the side characters than Michael himself. While Michael has pivotal and important scenes, Revenge is Geraci's story. The Michael we see in this book is a far cry from the man he was in Godfather. There is a definite fall from grace that left something of a sad and off putting end to his story. His character choices seemed flawed from canon works previously (both the original Godfather by Puzo and the films). By the end of the book, I likened him more to Walter White's fall from grace when Michael makes one critical decision against everything he had stood for in the stories previously. There are other developments with Fontane, Francesca and the Hagen's but the book really is Nick Geraci's story. It was a compelling and heart breaking story, trying to frame this man as a "bad guy" simply because he was against Michael as a foil. Adding the depth to the characters that Winegardner does, we can see that these characters, no matter how awful their choices, are not one dimensional bad guys but shades of grey.

Great Story, but not for the Corleone's
