| Book Description | "Gomorrah" is a book that has crossed red lines and exposed what its author dared to reveal like no one else before. By publishing secret facts and critical, precise details, it goes beyond fear and confronts the crimes of the Italian mafia, directing accusations against it, supported by solid evidence, regardless of the consequences that may befall him. The book was published in Arabic by the Arab Scientific Publishers and "Kalima" after achieving massive sales worldwide, topping the list of best-selling books in The New York Times. It has been translated into thirty-two different languages and approximately 1.8 million copies have been sold across various European countries. The book has formed a loud cry that has astonished many and turned the true story into a successful film currently showing in London, which also won an award at the Cannes Film Festival. Its author, Roberto Saviano, gained significant fame and received the "Viareggio" literary prize in Italy, in addition to being assigned a group of security escorts by the police after receiving death threats following the publication of his book, making him continually move from one place to another, hiding from the "Camorra" mafia that issued the order for his assassination. The book recounts the astonishing facts discovered by the author during his investigations into the Italian "Camorra" mafia, which spreads its poison throughout "Casal" in the Naples region. The "Camorra" is considered one of the largest criminal organizations in Europe, where "Camorra" means "chief" and "streets." Saviano penetrated the structure of this global criminal organization, which possesses a chain of illegal businesses that control part of the global economy and affect various European markets. He was present at crime scenes, observing shattered car windows and examining bullet-ridden corpses. This tyranny and terrorism shocked all his senses, and the smell of burnt bodies ignited his conscience, prompting him to write down his observations, describing his reactions, challenging injustice, and calling for the exposure of what was happening to hold those responsible accountable. Saviano did not present vague or indirect symbols and descriptions; instead, he brought us into this world, vividly portraying events as though it were a real documentary showing directly before us with names, places, and facts, which led the mafia leaders to demand his head. "Gomorrah," in Italian, or "Amoura" in Arabic, refers to the sinful city that God destroyed for its tyranny, chosen by the writer as a name to express the prevailing oppression in Naples, the city where Roberto Saviano was raised in an environment filled with corruption, crime, and terror. "Gomorrah" is not just a literary novel but a record of the lives of individuals and a city that experiences the nightmare of terrorism daily. It is the tale of a twenty-eight-year-old citizen who puts his life at risk, challenging injustice and choosing a point of no return, exposing damning accusations after verifying them through his involvement with the gang. This brave and rebellious young man, fed up with the crime that dominates his city, made words a weapon to confront the brutality of the crimes committed, revealing what no one else dared to declare, making his book "Gomorrah" a document condemning corruption, terrorism, and the world of crime. |
