Published in 1951, inspired by a chronicle episode that really happened in Calabria at the end of the war, "Il brigante " is a novel that fits into the tradition of neorealism and tells the story of a young man who became a bandit in spite of himself, only because he was unjustly blamed for having killed someone. One of the most beautiful and tragic novels that have appeared for years, truly a small masterpiece. Writing is superb: precise, clear, neither too simple, nor too pompous. Both for the style and for the content, only the preface (by Berto himself) is noteworthy: in a few pages, or rather in a few words, he manages to draw a picture of the immediate post-war period and of neorealism of extreme clarity and ...

In MAFIA REPUBLIC, John Dickie, Professor of Italian Studies at University College, London and author of the international bestsellers COSA NOSTRA and MAFIA BROTHERHOODS, shows how the Italian mafias have grown in power and become more and more interconnected, with terrifying consequences. In 1946, Italy became a democratic Republic, thereby entering the family of modern western nations. But deep within Italy there lurked a forgotten curse: three major criminal brotherhoods, whose methods had been honed over a century of experience. As Italy grew, so did the mafias. Sicily's Cosa Nostra, the camorra from Naples, and the mysterious 'ndrangheta from Calabria stood ready to enter the wealthiest and bloodiest period of their long history. Italy made itself rich by making scooters, cars and handbags. The mafias carved out their own route to wealth through tobacco smuggling, construction, kidnapping and narcotics. And as criminal business grew exponentially, the mafias grew not just more powerful, but became more interconnected. By the 1980s, Southern Italy was on the edge of becoming a narco-state. The scene was set for a titanic confrontation between heroic representatives of the law, and mafiosi who could no longer tolerate any obstacle to their ambitions. This was a war for Italy's future as a civilized country. At its peak in 1992-93, the 'ndrangheta was beheading people in the street, and the Sicilian mafia murdered its greatest enemies, investigating magistrates Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino, before embarking on a major terrorist bombing campaign on the Italian mainland. Today, the long shadow of mafia history still hangs over a nation wracked by debt, political paralysis, and widespread corruption. While police put their lives on the line every day, one of Silvio Berlusconi's ministers said that Italy had to 'learn to live with the mafia'; suspicions of mafia involvement still surround some of the country's most powerful media moguls and politicians. The latest investigations show that its reach is astonishing: it controls much of Europe's wholesale cocaine trade, and representatives from as far away as Germany, Canada and Australia come to Calabria to seek authorisation for their affairs. Just when it thought it had finally contained the mafia threat, Italy is now discovering that it harbours the most global criminal network of them all.

«Un racconto generoso e godibilissimo, che è pura affabulazione. Niente se non la sostanza del narrare.» Il Giornale su Il brigante In una notte flagellata da un forte temporale, quattro uomini si ritrovano per caso seduti allo stesso tavolo di una sperduta taverna sui monti dell’Appennino pistoiese. Spesso, però, il caso non è altro che una delle vesti di cui il destino si serve per celarsi agli uomini. A pochi passi dai quattro, infatti, sdraiato sopra una panca, c’è un mitico e sanguinario brigante, Frate Capestro. Su di lui circolano molte leggende, storie diverse che concordano tutte sulla sua astuzia e sulla sua ferocia. Adesso, ammantato di nero, il brigante dorme davanti al fuoco, tranquillo, come se non fosse l’uomo più ricercato del Granducato, e nessuno sembra badare a lui. Ma la notte è lunga e, bevendo vino, i quattro uomini – un vecchio, un giovane, dita mozze e l’ultimo arrivato – si raccontano a turno episodi delle loro vite: ognuno ha qualcosa da nascondere, nella memoria di tutti giacciono colpe taciute e mai veramente espiate. Il brigante li ascolta in silenzio. E si prepara all’arrivo dell’alba, quando ciascuno dei quattro uomini dovrà fare i conti con un passato non ancora sepolto.

MAFIA. CAMORRA. 'NDRANGHETA. The Sicilian mafia, known as Cosa Nostra, is far from being Italy's only dangerous criminal fraternity. The country hosts two other major mafias: the camorra from Naples; and, from the poor and isolated region of Calabria, the mysterious 'ndrangheta, which has now risen to become the most powerful mob group active today. Since they emerged, the mafias have all corrupted Italy's institutions, drastically curtailed the life-chances of its citizens, evaded justice, and set up their own self-interested meddling as an alternative to the courts. Yet each of these brotherhoods has its own methods, its own dark rituals, its own style of ferocity. Each is uniquely adapted to corrupt and exploit its own specific environment, as it collaborates with, learns from, and goes to war with the other mafias. Today, the shadow of organized crime hangs over a country racked by debt, political paralysis, and widespread corruption. The 'ndrangheta controls much of Europe's wholesale cocaine trade and, by some estimates, 3 percent of Italy's total GDP. Blood Brotherhoods traces the origins of this national malaise back to Italy's roots as a united country in the nineteenth century, and shows how political violence incubated underworld sects among the lemon groves of Palermo, the fetid slums of Naples, and the harsh mountain villages of Calabria. Blood Brotherhoods is a book of breathtaking ambition, tracing for the first time the interlocking story of all three mafias from their origins to the present day. John Dickie is recognized in Italy as one of the foremost historians of organized crime. In these pages, he blends archival detective work, passionate narrative, and shrewd analysis to bring a unique criminal ecosystem -- and the three terrifying criminal brotherhoods that have evolved within it -- to life on the page.
