I've noticed in most of Mario Puzo's books that I've read that he follows something like a "time-plan". He starts at somepoint in time, then goes back in history (a few years or decades), comes back to the begining's time period (in The Sicilian, he kept going back and forth). And then, moves on to the "future" (the time after the period when it all started).

I don't know if I made any sense with that, but I haven't noticed this with many other authors (maybe one or two max). Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
