«Scarface» is the crime novel by Armitage Trail, published by Bloomsbury Paperbacks in paperback (192 pages, in English).
Tony Guarino grows up among the bars and billiard halls of Chicago, where gangsters are heroes and the police are the enemy. At eighteen he kills the boss Al Spingola, an act that makes him famous and feared. Thus begins his rise to the top of organised crime in Prohibition-era Chicago.
Originally published in 1930, it is the novel on which the Scarface film adaptations were based. This 2005 edition belongs to the Bloomsbury Film Classics collection.
For fans of crime fiction and gangster stories, and for those who want to discover the original tale behind the Scarface films.
