THE FAMILY is due out in October.

While not about the Mafia, it is a story about the greatest power family in Italian history -- the Borgias. It's based on Rodrigo Borgia (Pope Alexander VI) and his family, friends, and enemies from 15th century Rome. It's much more interesting than it sounds - trust me!

Mario spent 10 years on this and had just written the last chapter a couple weeks before he died. His author-wife Carol Gino completed it. (Carol will be a guest on this message board next month to talk about the book and answer any questions you may have!)

Keep an eye out here, and on the Mario Puzo Library site for updates...

I guess we passed the 30-day mark! I made a post about this the first day but since I had it set to only see the past 30 days of posts, I didn't see it in the listing...

I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol
