Guernica Editions

Shot with a wide-angle lens, multiple characters, all deftly drawn, burst from these pages with a teeming and cumulative energy, until the parts coalesce into one monumental and unforgettable character—the neighbourhood—New York’s Little Italy. Gaudioso walks the walk and talks the talk, like he knows these people personally. But then, he was a cop on the beat and part of the organized crime task force that brought down Gambino family members including John Gotti, Jr. Hats off to a terrific read and a terrific new writer who sings allegro con brillo.
