The essay traverses Naples and Campania dominated by the Camorra: clan wars and illegal businesses such as arms, drugs, counterfeits and toxic waste. Saviano describes the economic empire of organized crime and its role in the global economy, and recounts his bond with those lands and his decision to fight the mafia by writing.
The original Italian work was published in 2006; this French edition features a translation by Vincent Raynaud.
