With a global reach, large stakes in construction, high fashion, illegal drugs and toxic waste disposal, the Camorra exerts a malign grip on cities and villages along the Neapolitan coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn pursuit of his subject, Roberto Saviano worked as an assistant at a Chinese textile manufacturer and on a construction site, both controlled by 'the System', and as a waiter at a Camorra wedding. Born in Naples, he recalls seeing his first murder at the age of fourteen, and how his own father, a doctor, suffered a brutal beating for trying to help an eighteen-year-old victim, left for dead in the street. Since publishing the author has received so many death threats from the Camorra that he has been assigned police protection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pan Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42973369761958,"sku":"9781509843886","price":19.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/8471\/4918\/products\/gomorrah-italy-s-other-mafia-9781509843886-18641001709717.jpg?v=1656047324","url":"https:\/\/bookxcess.myshopify.com\/products\/gomorrah-italys-other-mafia","provider":"Staging Site ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
