GOMORRAH

By Roberto Saviano

The basis for the acclaimed Sundance TV series *Gomorrah* and a *New York Times* Notable Book, Roberto Saviano's groundbreaking investigative account exposes the Camorra—an organized crime network more powerful and violent than the Mafia. An unprecedented bestseller in Italy, *Gomorrah* details how this elaborate, international system, dealing in everything from drugs and high fashion to construction and toxic waste, has utterly transformed Naples and the surrounding Campania province. Having witnessed the Camorra's influence since childhood, Saviano immerses himself in its operations, revealing the audacious, far-reaching corruption that has paralyzed his home city and introduced the world to a terrifying new breed of organized crime.
