Dive into the abyss of this unexplored territory
Roberto Saviano


Going beyond stereotypes, The Godmother redefines our ideas of criminal enterprises led by the women who are strong enough, smart enough, and mean enough to take control.

Meet ‘Lady Camorra,’ one of the first female mafia bosses, as she sips coffee and drums her black-lacquered fingernails on her kitchen table. The Godmother’ takes the reader into the littleknown role of the women that underpin Italy’s most ruthless mob families and are forced to reckon with the social and sexual codes
governing the violent reality of mafioso rule.
