Here's what is a matter. In my English 11 class, were are required to do a Historical Investigation Research paper on a Famous writer. I chose Mario Puzo. But the problem i am having is that i am confused about Puzo. Heres why:

What are the real reason's why he wrote the Godfather and Omerta. I know the Godfather was to put food on the table, but come on there has to be a real reason why he wrote it. I mean you just dont come up with a story and write it, unless he was that good. Is there a theme within these stories? What point's is he trying to make?

2nd: Could someone possible Analysis both books for me, and give theme's that are related to both books. I am so confused.

Any insight on both books, wat people got from the books anything will be a great help. I read GF and Omerta, so my mind is little blank. I really need some help. Any help you guys can give is appeicated. Also if you know of any sites that have good things about Puzo, example, critic's talking about his works, or anything.

Thank you,
Chris

It wouldn't be fair to do your work for you (answering those questions), but here's a site that you can find something http://www.thegodfathertrilogy.com

Puzo was a history freak, most of his books are history novels.

Best of luck, those essays r tough.

Did you even read the books Qckrun? I read The Godfather and I must say that is the best book I have ever read.


How am I not myself?

Yea i read the book. Ive read 4 of Puzo's novels. The Godfather is by far the best book ive read, i just need help with connections to the Godfather and why he wrote it. Cause i went a Univeristy Library to look up Articles on Puzo and books on him, and Found 1 book, that was sorta a help, and about 12 differen ok sources to why he wrote and connections.

There's a book called The Godfather Legacy by Harlan Lebo that might be of some help.
