That was the point, to paint the Godfather as a sympathetic character, who only killed people who needed killing, not as some raving bloodthirsty madman.

The book was very controversial because it did portray gangsters in a positive light.

My freshman year in college, my roommate found out that I didn't know about page 28 of "The Godfather". She gave me a copy for Christmas and I stay up all night reading the book because it was so believable. and well written.

Well, I thought it was, anyway.

What is page 28? Does it have to do with Sonny’s girth?
