I watched the TV series first and then read the books. The trilogy tells the story of two generations. The Godfather trilogy is actually about learning to be a human being. The trilogy is a good story, and the movies made are also good movies. However, if anyone really takes some of the principles advocated by the church fathers as the principles of life and pursues them, it would be too simple. Life is a complex collection, and it is never possible to master a few principles and be able to pass without hindrance. All we can do is to pursue some higher upper limits while sticking to our own bottom line.
Everyone has only one destiny, and every gift given by destiny has a price secretly marked on it.
As times change, the meaning of the Godfather has also changed. From the purest generation to the ambiguous third generation. The Mafia family may become grains of sand in the long river of time, but there will be people who remember their former glory.
There is a loneliness carved behind the glory. The more you carry everything, the more you have to endure all the uneasiness and fear, and the incomprehension of everyone.
It can become a classic of Meili Jian, a masterpiece starring Malandron, and a true reflection of the American social situation at that time. It is certainly a classic among classics.
Whenever a friend asks me to recommend a good book, I tell them that they should read classics, whether they are domestic or foreign. There must be a reason why these books are loved by the public and eventually become famous. The historical, cultural and social background in "The Godfather" allows us to understand the emergence of gangs. The various characters in it are full of character, and the storylines are intertwined and fascinating, making people want to keep reading. Even the description of the scenery makes people feel immersed in the scene. The strong family concept in The Godfather and the emphasis on family ties and blood ties are the basis of family formation, coupled with interest alliances, making each family strong. This book not only tells the story of gangsters, but also real human nature.
Great works are a completely different world beyond my knowledge
I read the physical book first, not the movie. Personally, I think "The Last Godfather" is the masterpiece of the Godfather trilogy. Take a peek into America in the 1990s through the film industry. It writes the wisdom of the godfather and shows the meaning of family.
"The Godfather" is worthy of being a world-famous book. I like it very much. It is worth reading and thinking about carefully. The author is so great. The characters, events, situations, environments and other details are portrayed very naturally and almost perfectly. It is really a great history book. This book is worth reading carefully, thinking carefully, and you will be impressed by the author's writing skills, as if you were immersed in the book and be infected. Now that you read it, you still feel that it is in line with social phenomena and human nature, and there is no sense of violation. Thank you Tomato for recommending this book for inclusion. I am very discerning. I wish Tomato will get better and better!
Just one? What about 2-3 more?
Very good, it seems there will be a sequel, I hope to continue to produce good works! !
It's wonderful, the characters are vividly and contrastingly drawn, and the storyline is gripping. It's truly a classic.
Very good. The translated words are still not as good as the paper book. It is already very good.
The book "The Godfather" is so wonderful! The author Mario Puzo is really amazing, he vividly describes the cruelty and complexity of the gang world. The characters in the book are vivid and the plot has ups and downs, which made me unable to stop reading. Moreover, his insights into human nature were profound and gave me a new understanding of friendship, loyalty, and silence. Overall, this is a good book worth reading again and again!
I read the book a few years ago and watched the TV series once. When I read the book this time, I couldn't help but listen to it and read it again. The content is wonderful and I will never tire of reading it!
How come the third part is all the story of another family, the story after Mike returns to the United States?
Tomatoes are awesome! There are many good books
Wonderful and vivid college entrance examination
A book every man needs, as indispensable as air...
It is indeed a world famous book and very well written.
Very good, revealing the situation in the United States in the early and mid-19th century!
A very nice book
Classic book, brilliant!
A good book needs to be repeated several times. Art comes from life, and life itself is art.
Not bad, let's see what the classics look like People can't help themselves in the world
The Godfather is a classic American gangster film, and the original trilogy is a landmark masterpiece of American gangster novels. Someone once commented that "The Godfather" is "the history of a man's growth, the history of a family's honor and disgrace, and the history of the disillusionment of the American dream." It is not difficult to see that this is the core content of this book. If the movie "The Godfather" trilogy is one of the greatest movies in American history, the novel has more details, and it is more appropriate to view it as a "movie footnote".
It's wonderful, I love it. This is the only book I have read with reluctance, but it is finally finished. I will definitely read the paper book again if I have a chance in the future!
It's worth recommending, the underworld characters are brilliantly portrayed! It is a eloquent and straightforward description of the world of the American Mafia in the 1920s, 1930s and the post-war period. It is indeed a masterpiece.
Book friends, what is this book about? Can something be learned and seen? Why am I confused after reading this? Please tell me and give me your opinion on this book. Thanks in advance.
Read the novel after watching the movie
