Obitelj

Mario Puzo

Mario Puzo collected material for more than ten years for the story about the darkest Italian family, the Borgias, but he was unable to finish it. It was done by his lifelong companion, the writer Carol Gino.

In the fifteenth century, Italy as we know it today did not exist. Five great powers and independent city-states ruled by old families fought over territory. Society was shaken by turmoil, lawlessness ruled the streets of Rome and the Vatican. Money could buy everything: position in society, pardons, God's forgiveness. At the same time, it was a time of great achievements in the fields of philosophy, art, medicine, music and culture. The early Renaissance was the time of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Rodrigo Borgia and his family.
