Qué manera de Puzo de construir a sus personajes, una trama que te envuelve y te sumerge en lo más profundo del mundo de la mafia. Un librazo.

پدر خوانده یک رمان بسیار منسجم با شخصیت پردازی قوی و یک خط داستانی نسبتا مشخص ولی بسیار جذاب می باشد که البته فیلم پدر خوانده حاصل از همین کتاب بسیار مشهورتر از کتاب هست . در حقیقت محال است که انسان این کتاب را بخواند و به هنگام خواندن دیالوگهای دن به یاد مارلون براندو یا زمان رسیدن به گفتگوهای مایکل به یاد آل پاچینو نیفتد . داستان مربوط به تعدادی سیسیلی ایست که بنا به دلایلی که بعدها توضیح داده میشود به نیویورک مهاجرت کرده اند و گویا این بیماری مافیا یا نوئستراکوزا را هم با خود از ایتالیا...

“Tell my father I wish to be his son." -Michael Corleone This is the line that won me over!Edited@15/04/2019:GR ate my review!!! I can't fucking believe it!!! *sobs**re-write review is in order.......hopefully.* Here is a few reasons why I put The Godfather in such a high place: (1) The characters are entirely seductive, likable and engaging despite most of them being Mafia. It has been a long time since I last saw seductive characters like this from We Have Always Lived in the Castle.(2) ...

Mario Puzo wrote The Godfather, a book that was to become an instant classic, at a time when both his personal life and that of the United States were in transition. Puzo's first two novels had not sold well, and he was almost penniless. A young, up and coming author, Puzo sought to write his version of the great American novel that would also work well on the silver screen. Meanwhile, in a time of war, the nation was beginning to view the mafia rather than Cowboys as the great American hero. Ac...

“‘[T]ell me the truth, Tom, how many men do you figure the Don killed or had killed?’[Michael asked]Tom Hagen turned away. ‘I'll tell you one thing you didn't learn from him: talking the way you're talking now. There are things that have to be done and you do them and you never talk about them. You don't try to justify them. They can't be justified. You just do them. Then you forget it.’Michael Corleone frowned. He said quietly, ‘As the Consigliere, you agree that it's dangerous to the Don and o...

The Best! a treasure of a story,plot and movie to keep forever...good storytelling and amazing writing (paperback!)

Indeed, dear reader, I did not hate The Godfather. I h-aa-ted it.How much did I hate it? Well I could start with a long dissemination of Mario Puzo's simplistic and repetitive prose. Puzo seems to think the reader needs a reminder of plot points that occured ten pages ago, and that unnecessarily drawing out an obvious reveal by splitting it up into three points of view counts as suspense.Or I could give you a thorough cataloguing of how very poser-y The Godfather, with its bombastic ideas of mas...
