Description
"Brilliant . . . Indispensable." Los Angeles Times Here is the story of the rise and fall of the notorious Bonanno crime family of New York as only best-selling author Gay Talese could tell it.
First Sentence
KNOWING THAT IT is possible to see too much, most doormen in New York have developed and extraordinary sense of selective vision: they know what to see and what to ignore, when to be curious and when to be indolent; they are most often standing indoors, unaware, when there are accidents or arguments in front of their buildings; and they are usually in the street seeking taxicabs when burglars are escaping through the lobby.
