    made. It has spawned two highly-respected sequels, both co-scripted by Puzo. The novel has

    consistently stayed in print and has sold over 21 million copies worldwide.

    The story revolves around Vito Corleone, a leader of organized crime in the 1940s. He is a man who

    rules with quiet persuasion, asking those who wish favors from him for their loyalty and dealingmercilessly with those who cross him. When other criminals try to involve his organization in the drug

    trade, Corleone resists and the shield of power that he has built around his family is threatened. The

    aged crime lord must defend his family and pass control of his empire to one of his three sons.

    This book helped define how the world views organized crime in America, framing the aspects of

    greed and violence that are inherent in the underworld with an emphasis on family, respect, and

    honor. The character of Vito Corleone, the Godfather, has been compared to Huckleberry Finn and

    Holden Caulfield as an archetype, a personality so true to the American experience that, though

    fictional, he seems familiar to everyone. Far beyond being just another crime novel, The

    Godfatherrelates to all stories of immigrant families who are trying, over the course of generations, to

    fit into the mainstream of American life.

    The Godfather Summary

    Book I

    The Godfatheropens in 1945, at the wedding of Connie Corleone, the only daughter of Vito

    Corleone, the head of the most powerful organized crime family in the United States. During the

    wedding, Corleone, respectfully referred to as the Don or Godfather, is obliged to meet with people

    who seek his help. As the novel explains, "by tradition no Sicilian can refuse a request on his

    daughter's wedding day." One man's daughter was raped, and he asks Don Corleone to punish the

    rapists; another man needs political support so that his daughter's fianc will not be deported;

    another, the Don's actual godson, is a famous singer whose career will fail if he does not get the

    movie role that a Hollywood producer has refused to him.

    The long wedding sequence is used to introduce the main characters. Don Corleone's oldest son,

    Sonny, is a hot-tempered ladies man; Fredo is a weak-willed drunkard; and his youngest son,Michael, has disappointed his father by staying out of the family business and joining the army.

    Michael is at the wedding with his girlfriend from college, Kay Adams, who does not know that the

    family is into organized crime until he tells her some chilling stories about other wedding guests.

    Other important characters include Tom Hagen, the Corleone family's adopted son, who serves the

    Godfather as a counselor in criminal activities, and Clemenza and Tessio, the captains in the

    Corleone army.

    As soon as the wedding is over, Don Corleone takes his sons to visit his old friend and counselor,

    Genco Abbandando, who is dying in the hospital. That same night, Hagen is sent to California to

    make the movie producer give the required role to his godson, Johnny Fontane. While they are

    talking, the producer shows Hagen a beautiful race horse that he has bought. He says that he is

    sorry that he cannot cast Johnny in the movie. The next morning, the producer wakes to find the

    horse's severed head in his bed, and, realizing the ferocity and stealth of the Corleone crime family,

    he arranges to cast Johnny.

    A meeting is arranged with Virgil Sollozzo, a drug dealer who wants the Corleone family to be

    partners with him. Don Corleone says that he will not be involved with drugs, but during the meeting

    Sonny shows interest.

    Three months later, an assassination attempt is made on the Don's life. He survives, but while he is

    in the hospital, another attempt is made. Michael, who is visiting at the time, manages to scare off

    the assassins. A meeting of family officials... Complete The Godfather Summary

    Some controversy surrounds the title of the book and its underworld implications. Although it is widely reported

    that Puzo was inspired to use "Godfather" as a designator for a Mafia leader from his experience as a reporter,

    the term The Godfatherwas first used in connection with the Mafia duringJoe Valachi's testimony during a

    1963 United States congressional hearing on organized crime.[citation needed]

    [edit]Main characters

    The Corleone family patriarch isVito Corleone(The Don), whose surname (Italianfor "Lionheart") recalls the

    town ofCorleone,Sicily. Vito has four children:Santino "Sonny" Corleone,Frederico "Fredo" Corleone,Michael

    "Mikey" Corleone, andConstanzia "Connie" Corleone. He also has an informally adopted son,Tom Hagen,

    who became the Corleones'consiglieri. Vito Corleone is also thegodfatherof singer and movie starJohnny

    Fontane. The godfather referred to in the title is generally taken to be Vito. However, the story's central

    character is actually Michael. Its central theme follows that it is Michael's destiny to replace his father as the

    head of the family, despite his determination to lead a more Americanized life with his girlfriend (and eventual

    wife)Kay Adams.

    The Corleone family is in fact a criminal organization with national influence,

    notablyprotection,extortion,gamblingandunionracketeering. Serving under the Don is his oldest son Santino,

    who serves as underboss. The operational side of the organization is headed by twocaporegimes,Peter

    ClemenzaandSalvatore Tessio.

    [edit]Film adaptation

    Main article:The Godfather

    In1972, a film adaptation of the novel was released, starringMarlon Brandoas Don Vito Corleone,Al

    Pacinoas Michael Corleone, and directed byFrancis Ford Coppola. Mario Puzo assisted with writing the

    screenplay and with other production tasks. The film grossed approximately $269 million worldwide and won

    various awards, including threeAcademy Awards, fiveGolden Globesand oneGrammyand is considered to

    be one of the greatest films of all time. The sequel,The Godfather Part IIwon sixOscars, and became the first

    sequel to win theAcademy Award for Best Picture.

    The film is similar to the novel in most places, but leaves out some details, such as extended back stories for

    some characters. Some of these details were actually filmed, and were included in later versions such as The

    Godfather Saga. A subplot involving Johnny Fontane in Hollywood was not filmed. The biggest difference was

    that the novel included a more upbeat ending than the film, in which Kay Corleone accepts Michael's decision

    to take over his father's business. The film, in contrast, ends with Kay's realization of Michael's ruthlessness, a

    theme that would develop in thesecondandthirdfilms, which were largely not based on the original novel. Vito

    Corleone's backstory appeared in the second film.

    [edit]Other adaptations

    Main article:The Godfather: The Game

    The video game companyElectronic Artsreleased avideo gameadaptation of The Godfatheron March 21,

    2006. The player assumes the role of a "soldier" in the Corleone family. Prior to his death,Marlon

    Brandoprovided some voice work forVito, which was eventually deemed unusable and was dubbed over by a

    Brando impersonator.Francis Ford Coppolasaid in April 2005 that he was not informed of Paramount's

    decision to allow the game to be made and he did not approve of it.[4]Al Pacinoalso did not participate, and his

    likeness was replaced with a different depiction ofMichael Corleone.

    [edit]The Godfather Effect

    The novel had a Godfather Effect on American culture. As noted by author Tom Santopietro,The

    Godfatherwas a turning point in American cultural consciousness. With its emphasis on proud ethnicity,

    The Godfatherchanged not just the way Italian-Americans saw themselves, but how Americans of all

    backgrounds viewed their individual and national self-identities, their possibilities, and attendant

    disappointments.[5]

    The Godfather Effect had a broader philosophical dimension, as well. As noted by Santopietro, "what Puzo

    delivered - brilliantly - was nothing less than a disquisition on the madness, glory, and failure of theAmerican

    dream."[6]Early in the novel, Amerigo Bonasera declares I believe in America. The novel then depicts a

    nation where Mafia and big business are two sides of the same coin: both are corrupt, tell the truth selectively,

    and do exactly as they wish.[7]

    This insight is bluntly stated by Michael Corleone, who recommends that Italian-Americans must learn from the

    philanthropists like theRockefellersfirst you rob everybody, then you give to the poor.[8]

    10/13

    In 1983 Puzo's literary sequel toThe Godfatherwas published. EntitledThe Sicilianit chronicles the life of

    "Guiliano" (Salvatore Giuliano) but the Corleone family is featured heavily throughout,Michael Corleonein

    particular. Chronologically this story sits between Michael's exile to Sicily in 1950 to his return to the USA. Due

    to copyright reasons the Corleone family involvement was cut from theMichael Ciminomovie adaption.

    In 2004,Random Housepublished a sequel to Puzo's The Godfather,The Godfather Returns, byMark

    Winegardner. A further sequel by Winegardner,The Godfather's Revenge, was released in 2006. The sequel

    novels continue the story from Puzo's novel.

    The Godfather Returnspicks up the story immediately after the end of Puzo's The Godfather. It covers the

    years 1955 to 1962, as well as providing significant backstory for Michael Corleone's character prior to the

    events of the first novel. The events of the f ilmThe Godfather Part IIall take place within the time frame of this

    novel, but are only mentioned in the background. The novel contains an appendix that attempts to correlate the

    events of the novels with the events of the films.

    The Godfather's Revengecovers the years 1963 to 1964.

    Continuing Puzo's habit, as seen in The Godfather, of featuring characters who are close analogues of real life

    events and public figures (asJohnny Fontaneis an analogue ofFrank Sinatra), Winegardner features in his

    two Godfathernovels analogues ofJoseph,John, andRobert Kennedy, as well as an analogue for alleged

    organized crime figureCarlos Marcello(Carlo Tramonti). InThe Godfather Returns, Winegardner also

    dramatizes thesweep of organized crime arreststhat took place inApalachin, New York, in 1957.

    Winegardner uses all of the characters from the Puzo novels, and created a few of his own, most notablyNick

    Geraci, a Corleonesoldierwho plays a pivotal role in the sequel novels. Winegardner further develops

    characters from the original novel, such asFredo Corleone,Tom Hagen, andJohnny Fontane.

    [edit]Real-life influences

    Large parts of the novel are based upon reality, notably the history of the so-called 'Five Families', the Mafia-

    organization in New York and the surrounding area. The novel also includes many allusions to real-life

    mobsters and their associates, andJohnny Fontaneis based onFrank Sinatra,[9]Moe GreeneonBugsy

    Siegel,[10][11]for example.
