Mark Winegardner WINEGARNER_Die Rache 30.03.2007 9:46 Uhr Seite 3 MARK WINEGARDNER Roman Aus dem Amerikanischen von Alexander Wagner und Frank Dabrock WILHELM HEYNE VERLAG MÜNCHEN WINEGARNER_Die Rache 30.03.2007 9:46 Uhr Seite 2 Das Buch New Orleans, 1963. Nachdem er den Mord an seinem Bruder Fredo befohlen hat, distanziert sich Michael Corleone immer mehr von sei- nen illegalen Aktivitäten. Da er gegen den Willen mehrerer anderer Dons den jungen Jimmy Shea zum Präsidenten der Vereinigten Staaten gemacht hat, wird er ständigen Anfeindungen ausgesetzt. Nicht zu- letzt, weil Sheas Bruder Daniel einen Kreuzzug gegen die Mafia be- ginnt. Teil davon ist es, den Paten von New Orleans, Carlo Tramonti, zeitweise nach Kolumbien zu deportieren. Im letzten Teil der einst von Mario Puzo begonnenen epischen Mafiasaga wagt sich der Corleone- Clan aus der Welt des organisierten Verbrechens auf die große Bühne der nationalen Politik. Intrigen, Rachepläne und korrupte Machen- schaften begleiten den Leser von New York über Washington und New Orleans bis in den Dschungel von Kolumbien. 1969 veränderte Mario Puzos legendärer Roman Der Pate, auf dem später Francis Ford Coppolas preisgekrönte Filme über die amerikani- sche Mafia basierten, die populäre Kultur. Nachdem die Fans lange über das Schicksal der Familie Corleone jenseits des berühmten Romans und der Filme grübelten, fügte Mark Winegardner, der von Puzos Erbengemeinschaft persönlich ausgewählt wurde, 2005 einen neuen, großen Paten-Roman hinzu. Mit Die Rache des Paten folgt nun der Abschluss der epischen Saga. Der Autor Mark Winegardner studierte Schriftstellerei und veröffentlichte mit sechsundzwanzig Jahren sein erstes Buch. Viele namhafte Publikatio- nen, unter anderem die New York Times und USA Today wählten seine Romane und Sachbücher zu den besten Büchern ihres Jahrgangs. Auch mit seinen Kurzgeschichten, die u.a. in GQ, Playboy oder im New York Times Magazine erschienen, feierte er große Erfolge.

Hinter ihm erstreckte sich die düstere, gepflasterte Gasse von Hell’s Kitchen, wo sie als Kinder aufgewachsen waren. In einer Hand hielt er eine Angelrute, im anderen Arm eine nackte Frau. Fredo schien auf herzzerreißend vertraute Weise zwischen Lachen und Weinen zu schwanken. Vom Ende des Blocks her hörte man den Eleventh- Avenue-Güterzug heranrattern, dessen Gleise längst stillgelegt und abgerissen waren. »Ich vergebe dir«, sagte Fredo. Blut begann aus einem Loch in seinem Hinterkopf zu strömen. Michael hatte keine Ahnung, was er da sah, aber offensicht- lich war es kein Traum. Und an Gespenster glaubte er erst recht nicht. »Das ist unmöglich«, sagte Michael. Fredo lachte. »Stimmt«, gab er zu. »Das kann nur Gott.« Wie angewurzelt stand Michael auf dem Treppenaufgang vor ihrem Haus. Außer ihnen war keiner da. Die Frau mit ihren verlockenden Kurven, der milchweißen Haut und dem raben- schwarzen Haar schien sich ein wenig für ihre Nacktheit zu schä- men. Gleichzeitig wirkte sie unerschrocken, wie eine, die sich nicht allzu sehr um die Meinung anderer schert. »Gott«, wiederholte Michael. »Richtig.« »Gehst du mit fischen?« Grinsend hob Fredo die Angelrute. »Oder willst du lieber ficken?« Die Frau trat einen Schritt vor. Im fahlen Licht verwandelte sie 9 WINEGARNER_Die Rache 30.03.2007 9:46 Uhr Seite 10 sich in eine verwesende Leiche und dann wieder zurück in Michaels Ideal weiblicher Schönheit. »Sag’s mir ruhig, okay?«, sagte Fredo. »Du traust es mir vielleicht nicht zu, aber ich arrangiere das für dich. Ich weiß, du bist einsam. Und wenn du was anderes brauchst – auch kein Problem. Ich will dir helfen, Michael. Ich will, dass du glücklich bist.« »Glücklich?«, fragte Michael. »Ist das nicht ein bisschen kin- disch, Fredo?« Michael bereute seine Worte augenblicklich, aber Fredo schien keinen Anstoß daran zu nehmen. Die Frau küsste Fredo, und er erwiderte ihren Kuss. Am Ende seiner Angelrute hing plötzlich ein gewaltiger Tunfisch. Er zappelte und begann derart heftig zu bluten, als hätte man ihn sowohl auf- gespießt als auch auf ihn eingedroschen. Die nackte Frau blickte zu dem Fisch und

  • Cases and Materials on the Outfit
    Rosen: Cases and Materials on The Outfit David Rosen Don Corleone to Sonny, in The Godfather The Don sighed. "Well, then I can't talk to you about how you should behave. Don't you want to finish school, don't you want to be a lawyer? Lawyers can steal more money with a briefcase than a thousand men with guns and masks. " Robert Warshow, in "The Gangster as Tragic Hero" Thus, the importance of the gangster film, and the nature and intensity of its emotional and esthetic impact, cannot be measured in terms of the place of the gangster himself or the importance of the problem of crime in American life. Those European movie-goers who think there is a gangster on every comer in New York are certainly deceived, but defenders of the "positive" side of American culture are equally deceived if they think it relevant to point out that most Cases and Materials Americans have never seen a gangster. What matters is that the experience of the gangster as an experience of on art is universal to Americans. There is almost nothing we understand better or react to more readily or with The Outfit quicker intelligence. This night, though, Pam had a different tale to tell. She announced that she and her friend Annie, the daughter of a prize-winning biologist, had gone to see "The Godfather," that they had been so deeply moved that, instead of going home, she'd gone tripping around town in search of the Mafia. I remember one night Pam showed up at the House at "The Mafia!" three in the morning.

They are followed by six young peasant men, carrying the crude wooden coffin on their shoulders. Then the widow, a strong large woman, dressed in black, and not accepting the arms of those walking with her. Behind her, not more than twenty relatives, few children and paisani continue alone behind the coffin.

Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol9/iss2/2 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Revisiting Violence in The Godfather: The Ambiguous Space of the Victimage Model Abstract This article closely revisits and praises the long, contemplative scenes and the fast contrapuntal cutting of the violence displayed in The Godfather to show how the movie's superior editing and filming style help to overturn its own violent message. Thus, the film, however cynically, completes Girard's the victimage model without actually immolating its would-be scapegoat. By inhabiting the deconstructive "space” of the scapegoating motif, the film's bloody scenes undercut themselves and help to enact a message against the violence within the ideologies of the American Dream, capitalist competition, or any other factor that may serve to mitigate Michael Corleone's actions. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol9/iss2/2 Graham: Revisiting Violence in The Godfather The easiest way to sum up René Girard's writings is to say that a series of imitative behaviors will build up over time until they reach a crisis, which a community will vanquish by eliminating an innocent scapegoat or surrogate victim.
