«El Siciliano» is the historical novel by Mario Puzo, published by Punto De Lectura in paperback (503 pages, in Spanish).
In 1950s Sicily, Michael Corleone, son of the Godfather, is tasked by his father with getting Salvatore Giuliano off the island—a peasant bandit turned popular myth, hounded by the government, the upper classes, and the mafia. The novel follows Giuliano amid violence and vendettas, and portrays the island's traditions and power relations.
The novel is the second installment of the «El Padrino» saga; this Spanish edition was published in 2002.
For fans of the «El Padrino» saga and readers of historical and crime fiction interested in twentieth-century Sicily.
Mario Francis Puzo was an American author and screenwriter. He wrote crime novels about the Italian-American Mafia and Sicilian Mafia, most notably The Godfather (1969), which he later co-adapted into a film trilogy directed by Francis Ford Coppola. He received the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for the first film in 1972 and for Part II in 1974. Puzo also wrote the original screenplay for the 1978 Superman film and its 1980 sequel. His final novel, The Family, was released posthumously in 2001.
