still life (1/13/2010)

The Secret Keeper

findings (5/17/2008)
A very good page turner,so good that I'm ordering her other three books.
Gomorrah
Gomorrah: A Personal Journey into the Violent International Empire of Naples' Organized Crime System
by Roberto Saviano, translated by Virginia Jewiss
gomorrah (10/17/2007)
I found Roberto Saviano's book a fasinating trip into the Camorra underworld.He writes almost poeticly in parts.Extremly riviting throughout. A book that can be read in one setting.
