Before The Godfatherand The Last Don, Mario Puzo wrote The Fortunate Pilgrim, a novel many believe to be one of the classics of Italian-American fiction. In this special edition, Mario Puzo's legions of fans will discover a different side of this legendary author, writing for the first time about an Italian family in which a woman holds the power.
Lucia Santa has traveled three thousand miles of dark ocean, from the mountain farms of Italy to the streets of New York, hoping for a better life. Instead, she finds herself in Hell's Kitchen, in a bad marriage, raising six children on her own. As Lucia struggles to hold her family together, her daughter confronts the adult world of work and romance while her eldest son is drawn into the Mafia. Meanwhile, her youngest son aspires to American pursuits she cannot understand.
Mario Puzo wrote this book from his heart. It is based on his mother's stories that she shared with him. He had worked an administrative job for twenty years and wrote this book in his spare time. Although "The Fortunate Pilgrim" was greatly acclaimed, he didn't make any money and couldn't quit his job as he had to support his family. So to make money, he wrote "The Godfather" simply for commercial purposes. He says that even the character of the Godfather is based on traits of his mother.
