Audio book, no binding. A groundbreaking major bestseller in Italy, Gomorrah is Roberto Savianos gripping nonfiction account of the decline of Naples under the rule of the Camorra, an organized crime network with a large international reach and stakes in construction, high fashion, illicit drugs, and toxic-waste disposal. Known by insiders as the System, the Camorra affects cities and villages along the Neapolitan coast and is the deciding factor in why Campania, for instance, has the highest murder rate in all of Europe and why cancer levels there have skyrocketed in recent years. Saviano tells of huge cargoes of Chinese goods that are shipped to Naples and then quickly distributed unchecked across Europe. He investigates the Camorras control of thousands of Chinese factories contracted to manufacture fashion goods, legally and illegally, for distribution around the world, and relates the chilling details of how the abusive handling of toxic waste is causing devastating pollution not only for Naples but also China and Somalia. In pursuit of his subject, Saviano worked as an assistant at a Chinese textile manufacturer, as a waiter at a Camorra wedding, and on a construction site. A native of the region, he recalls seeing his first murder at the age of fourteen and how his own father, a doctor, suffered a brutal beating for trying to aid an eighteen-year-old victim who had been left for dead in the street. Gomorrah is a bold and important work of investigative writing that holds global significance, one heroic young mans impassioned story of a place under the rule of a murderous organization.

´Der Müll und die Macht´«Die süditalienische Camorra mischt mit im internationalen Drogenhandel, verschiebt riesige Mengen Giftmülls in Italien, macht gewaltige Geschäfte mit der Herstellung billiger wie hochwertiger Textilien, hat praktisch das Monopol auf den Handel mit Zement und Geschäftsbeziehungen, die bis nach Deutschland, Schottland oder China reichen. Auf ihr Konto gehen jedes Jahr Hunderte von Toten. Der junge Journalist Roberto Saviano stammt selbst aus Neapel. Er hat unter Einsatz seines Lebens vor Ort recherchiert, Beweise geliefert und ein brillantes Buch geschrieben, das dem Leser den Atem nimmt. Die Macht der Camorra wie anderer Verbrecherorganisationen stützt sich auf Schweigen. Saviano hat diesem Schweigen die Macht des Wortes entgegengestellt. Damit hat er sich auch tödlicher Gefahr ausgesetzt, lebt seitdem an geheimen Orten und begibt sich nur unter dem Schutz von Bodyguards in die Öffentlichkeit.Roberto Saviano´s groundbreaking and utterly compelling book is a major international bestseller, and has to date sold 650,000 copies in Italy alone. Since publishing his searing expose of their criminal activities, the author has received so many death threats from the Camorra that he has been assigned police protection. Known by insiders as´the System´, the Camorra, an organized crime network with a global reach and large stakes in construction, high fashion, illicit drugs and toxic-waste disposal, exerts a malign grip on cities and villages along the Neapolitan coast is the deciding factor in why Campania has the highest murder rate in all of Europe and why cancer levels there have skyrocketed in recent years.In pursuit of his subject, Saviano worked as an assistant at a Chinese textile manufacturer and on a construction site, both controlled by´the System´, and as a waiter at a Camorra wedding.
