Summary
The career of George, the famed Greek mob boss, gets off to a bad start. As a teenager, he kills Joey, the man who might have been his father. Joey's twin brother, Lazarus, vows revenge. All George has to do to survive is to marry a Greek girl picked by his family. Unfortunately, George falls in love with Kelly, a girl who isn't Greek. She loves him. All she asks is that he leave his family.
This is the first book in The Saga of George trilogy, a satire of mob novels. It is set in the late 1960s, and it blends Greek culture, Greek mythology, and religious themes with the culture of sex, drugs, and rock and roll. George, a reluctant boss-in-training, constantly makes observations about life as he veers between comedy and tragedy in each chapter. He tries to solve problems on his own, but sometimes he needs the help of family. In the end, he must ask for their help to leave them and have a life on his own.
