馬裏奧•普佐(Mario Puzo,1920-1999)
通俗小說教父,美國最成功的暢銷小說作傢之一。他的代錶作《教父》開啓瞭黑幫小說的全新時代,一經問世便占領《紐約時報》暢銷小說榜67周,在短短兩年內創下2000萬冊銷量奇跡,至今仍是美國齣版史上頭號暢銷書。
《波吉亞傢族》在普佐作品中獨樹一幟,寫作焦點從現代美國轉移到瞭文藝復興時期的意大利,講述當時極具爭議的波吉亞傢族的故事,是普佐傾注最多心血和熱忱的作品。
本書也是普佐的遺作。1999年普佐去世時,本書最後一章尚未寫完,後由他的密友卡羅爾•吉諾續寫完成。
Alexander moved over to his favourite chair in the corner of the large chamber. 'Sit, my children, sit with me,' he gently ordered them...'We are a family,' he told his children. 'And the loyalty of the family must come before everything and everyone else. We must learn from each other, protect each other, and be bound first and foremost to each other. For if we honour that commitment, we will never be vanquished - but if we falter in that loyalty, we will all be condemned...' 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. Their intermingled stories constitute a symphony of human emotion and behaviour, 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.
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 評分《教父》系列作品令马里奥·普佐大红大紫,这很难不让他感慨世事无常。他曾经对自己的好友卡罗尔·吉诺说:“我在四十八岁之前一直笔耕不休,但仍然经营惨淡,亲爱的。我写了两本书,评论家们将它们称作经典,可那两本书才赚了五千美元。写完《教父》后,我才终于能够养家糊口...
"And so she had brought Cesare’s ashes to Silverlake, as if his mortal remains could be tempted to sin even yet. Or as some sort of pilgrimage to atone for her own sins of the flesh, the only sins of which she was guilty and of which she would be guilty no more. Finally, she would be redeemed."
