El gran clásico de la literatura del siglo XX.
La publicación en 1969 de El Padrino convulsionó el mundo literario. Por primera vez, la Mafia protagonizaba una novela y era retratada desde dentro. Mario Puzo la presentaba no como una mera asociación de facinerosos, sino como una compleja sociedad con una cultura propia y una jerarquÃa aceptada incluso más allá de los cÃrculos del crimen organizado.

Mario Puzo la presentaba no como una mera asociación de facinerosos, sino como una compleja sociedad con una cultura propia y una jerarquÃa aceptada incluso más allá de los cÃrculos del crimen organizado.
El Padrino narra la historia de un hombre, Vito Corleone, el capo más respetado de Nueva York. Déspota benevolente, implacable con sus rivales, inteligente y fiel a los principios del honor y la amistad, Don Corleone dirige un emporio que abarca el fraude y la extorsión, los juegos de azar y el control de los sindicatos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Mario Puzo's classic saga of an American crime family that became a global phenomenon--nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read. With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty, continues to stand the test of time as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched. A tale of family and society, law and order, obedience and rebellion, it reveals the dark passions of human nature played out against a backdrop of the American dream.
