Puzo, Mario - The Godfather (Published in by The Folio Society in 2020. Bound in screen-printed cloth. Set in Bembo with Trajan as display. 480 pages. Frontispiece plus 11 colour illustrations, two of which are double-page spreads. Decorative part titles. Printed 2 colour throughout in black and red. Coloured tops. Ribbon marker. Pictorial slipcase. 10" x 6.75". One of the best-selling books of all time, it is almost impossible to exaggerate the influence that Mario Puzo's genre-defining novel has had on popular culture since its publication in 1969. From Francis Ford Coppola's phenomenally successful film trilogy and a slew of deferential movies and television series, to gangland parlance and schoolyard banter, its legacy is multiple and global. This glorious new edition is packed with carefully considered design details that pay homage to Puzo's epic story and its era. From the bleeding upside-down New York skyline on the binding to the series of dramatic tableaux and portraits by award-winning illustrator Robert Carter, and Jonathan Freedland's new introduction, this is the edition that every Godfather aficionado has been waiting for. )
