Mario Puzo
Lifelong New Yorker Mario Puzo drew upon figures in his Italian-American family to create the characters in his smash hit The Godfather in 1969; but he claimed never to have met a real-life mobster, and his detailed portrait of the Mafia world came entirely from diligent research.
Biography
Mario Puzo was born in New York and, following military service in World War II, attended New York's New School for Social Research and Columbia University. His bestselling novel The Godfather, (1969) was preceded by two critically acclaimed novels, The Dark Arena (1955) and The Fortunate Pilgrim (1965). In 1978, he published Fools Die, followed by The Sicilian (1984), The Fourth K (1990), and the second installment in his Mafia trilogy, The Last Don (1996), which became an international bestseller and the highest-rated TV miniseries of 1997.

What is a family? Mario Puzo first answered that question, unforgettably, in his landmark bestseller The Godfather; with the creation of the Corleones he forever redefined the concept of blood loyalty. Now, thirty years later, Puzo enriches us all with his ultimate vision of the subject, in a masterpiece that crowns his remarkable career: the story of the greatest crime family in Italian history -- the Borgias.
In The Family, this singular novelist transports his readers back to fifteenth-century Rome and reveals the extravagance and intrigue of the Vatican as surely as he once revealed the secrets of the Mafia. At the story's center is Rodrigo Borgia, Pope Alexander VI, a man whose lustful appetites for power, luxury, and women were matched only by his consuming love of family. Surrounding him are his extraordinary children: the simple, unloved Jofre; the irascible, heartless Juan; the beautiful, strong-willed Lucrezia; and the passionate warrior Cesare, Machiavelli's friend and inspiration. Their intermingled stories constitute a symphony of human emotion and behavior, from pride to romance to jealousy to betrayal and murderous rage. And their time, place, and characters are recaptured in all their earthy, human grandeur, with the unerring insight and compassion that were Mario Puzo's great gifts.
A labor of love two decades in the making, The Family marks the final triumph of one of the greatest storytellers of our time.

我在玩刺客信条2的时候接触过波吉亚家族,历史的故事总是比虚构的小说还要惊心动魄。《波吉亚家族》是马里奥普佐的遗作,确是他最重要的作品!波吉亚家族的教皇通过自身的影响力和自己的儿女的摆布,整个欧洲都动荡不安。切萨雷可能是其中一个不那么收教皇摆布的人,但是真的所...
評分 評分同一段历史,不同作家的讲述,会有截然不同的风格。《史记》与《汉书》,同样的讲述汉朝历史,却让一部成为文学经典,一部成为历史著作。而著名的“浮士德”传说,由马洛、歌德、托马斯·曼分别讲述,也会因为各自的风格,而让他们的作品呈现不一样的风采。“波吉亚家族”这“...
評分這本是《教父》的作者Mario Puzo的遺作,他曾表示自己在波吉亞家族中得到很多關於它那經典角色Vito Andolini Corleone及其家族的靈感,本書則是他斷斷續續的寫作,有時難以下筆時就沉浸這個文藝復興最知名的家族之一的故事中,就可以文思泉湧。也因為如此,這部作品就這樣寫到...
