Omerta

Omerta

Mario Puzo

Ovaj roman posljednje je djelo koje je prije smrti napisao Mario Puzo, a ujedno je, uz Kuma i Posljednjeg Dona i završni dio njegove trilogije o mafiji.

Astorre Viola mlad je i uspješan poslovni čovjek, uvozi makarone, voli jahati i usput se bavi svojim hobijem – pjeva sicilijanske balade. No kao usvojeni nećak umirovljenog šefa mafije don Aprilea on je predodređeni upravitelj bankarskog carstva – legalnog izvora novca don Aprileove djece, časnih i poštenih članova društva.

Astorreov mirni život preokrenut će se u trenutku. Suparnici don Aprilea skovat će izdajničku zavjeru i prekršiti omertu – zakon šutnje. Kao čovjeku od časti, Astorreu će pasti u zadatak da osveti svog dobročinitelja i zaštiti njegovu djecu od prljavih poslova, korumpiranih djelatnika FBI-a i starih veza s mafijom.

Pisana Puzovim poznatim ležernim stilom, Omerta obiluje nizom detalja koji pokazuju njegovo poznavanje unutarnjeg života najpoznatije zločinačke organizacije, no način na koji autor oslikava svoje likove gotovo je nadrealističan, tako da pomalo nalikuje na krvavu mafijašku bajku.

In terms of genre, the novel is a combination of fantasy and crime. As in some earlier novels, the novelist touched on certain themes that "hang" in the air. It would be said that the writer anticipates real events.
