Description
In this masterful sequel to The Godfather, Mario Puzo weaves a lushly romantic and unforgettable tale of bloodshed, justice, and treachery set in 1950s Sicily. As Michael Corleone nears the end of his exile, he is commanded by The Godfather to recruit a legendary young bandit named Salvatore Giuliano—a modern-day Robin Hood who has defied both corruption and the Cosa Nostra itself. Ensnared in a deadly web of violence and vendettas, Giuliano embodies the dangerous spirit of Sicily, and his fate becomes inextricably linked with Michael's own destiny. Through mist-shrouded mountains and ancient ruins, Puzo explores the collision between honor and power, love and loyalty, as two men navigate the treacherous landscape of Sicilian legend. A cornerstone of Puzo's literary legacy, The Sicilian stands as a testament to his unequaled mastery of the crime saga.
