In \u003cem\u003eThe Borgias\u003c\/em\u003e , Puzo follows the trajectory of the 15th-century criminal clan, a real family, but with character traits worthy of the fictional Corleones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003ePuzo spent fifteen years building the plot of this sometimes slippery, but always malignant and deeply political family. The story begins with Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia becoming the supreme pontiff of the Catholic Church, Charles VI, by manipulating the papal elections of 1492. He then moves to the Vatican, accompanied by his lover and children: the simple and despised Jofre, the irascible and jealous Juan, the beautiful and determined Lucrezia—the most famous of the Borgias—and the warrior Cesare. The latter two were involved in an incestuous relationship that scandalized society at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Determined to establish his own dynasty, Rodrigo controls his offspring with an iron fist and an iron will.

In The Last Godfather, however, he blends organized crime with two other worlds he knows very well: the backstage areas of Hollywood and Las Vegas, cities he discovered over the last three decades. \"I worked a lot in Hollywood and lost a lot of the money I made there in Las Vegas,\" explains the author of the three screenplays for The Godfather, Superman I and II, and Earthquake, good-naturedly. This book tells the saga of the last great crime family in the United States. Its patriarch, Domenico Clericuzio, is a fierce old man, determined to secure his grandchildren's future in an era of legalized gambling, investment in film, and the constant threat of government informants. He decides to create a new life for his heirs in the capitals of gambling and cinema, where legitimate fortunes are quickly made. But there are seeds of evil in the Clericuzio story, planted by the boss himself, pitting Cross de Lena, son of the family's greatest assassin, against Dante, the patriarch's grandson. Puzo creates a stunning portrait of Hollywood (\"Where the real villains are,\" he says) and Las Vegas, with characters both noble and monstrous, to tell the story of a divided family. The novel showcases Puzo at his best: a blend of dark humor, wisdom, and epic suspense. The Last Boss is the author's most ambitious book, the result of five years of work and a lifetime dedicated to researching the major American gangs, Las Vegas, and Hollywood.","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159322411260,"sku":"9788577991150","price":49.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/df83f9c58a955002ef2a0054cf946e12_664f3278-3c3c-458e-91fd-c2c9c66b9c26.jpg?v=1778321539"},{"product_id":"o-poderoso-chefao","title":"The Godfather","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Godfather\u003c\/em\u003e is a literary classic that inspired one of the greatest films of all time.
