The Sacco Gang | Andrea Camilleri

3 posts | 2 read

Raffadali, province of Agrigento, 1920s. The Sacco brothers lives change radically when they receive an anonymous letter from the local Mafia demanding protection money. From that moment on, the Sacco brothers must defend themselves: from the Mafia, from their collaborators, traitors, and from the village's leaders, as they are assailed by murder attempts, false accusations, and false testimony. Through the tale of the Sacco brothers and what happens to the town of Raffadali, it's made clear that not only does the mafia kill people, but it can also condition and irreparably devastate people's lives.

The Sacco Gang | Andrea Camilleri

pick

Taking place in 1920s Fascist Italy, the Sacco family are Socialist-leaning and also believe in reporting crimes to the police, bypassing the Mafia. What ensues in this short novel is an “Italian Western”, as the book‘s blurb calls it. Between pick and so-so — would have been better if characters had been fleshed out more; it was a bit hard keeping them all straight.
