description: A modern masterpiece, The Godfather is the epic story of organised crime in the 1940s. It is also the intimate story of the Corleone family, at once drawn together and ripped apart by its unique position at the core of the American Mafia. Still shocking more than a quarter-century after it was first published and now abridged on tape for the first time, under special arrangement with Mario Puzo, this compelling tale of blackmail, murder and family values is a true classic.
