Capitalism in its rawest, most uninhibited form, is manifested in the Italian Mafia. This idea drives Saviano's brave memoir. The Cammora is a system of legal and illegal organizations with no regard for anything other then complete and utter control. Everything standing in its path is destroyed: Ethics, sensitivities, lives and, really, humanity itself. All is reduced to money and power. What is present in the our globe today, and is the bane of our collective existence - Capitalism - is merely a large scale model of the crime family. Saviano's writing is harsh. Unforgiving. Occasionally personal and brutal. Highly recommended book.
