GOMORRAH

À propos

With an introduction by Misha Glenny.

Since Gomorrah was first published in Italy in 2006, Roberto Saviano has received so many death threats that he has been assigned police protection in his native Naples. A groundbreaking study and a searing expose, Gomorrah is the astonishing true story of the renowned crime organization the Camorra, known by insiders as ''the System''. With a global reach, large stakes in construction, high fashion, illegal drugs and toxic waste disposal, the Camorra exerts a malign grip on cities and villages along the Neapolitan coast.

Now an international sensation, it is at once a bold and gripping piece of investigative journalism as well as the story of one brave young man, his life in Naples and his contempt for the murderous organization who destroyed the place he calls home.

Roberto Saviano

Né à Naples en 1979, Roberto Saviano étudie la philosophie avant de devenir journaliste. En 2006, il publie son premier livre, Gomorra (traduit en 2007 par Gallimard), succès phénoménal qui provoque l'ire de la mafia napolitaine et le contraint à vivre sous protection policière permanente. Figure de la lutte contre le crime organisé, il a publié à ce jour huit livres et il est toujours très impliqué dans les débats socio-politiques de son pays.
