Reseñas de la Crítica

"So entertaining you have to remind yourself it's deadly serious." (Boston Globe)

"Compelling and gripping....Raw, hard-hitting non-fiction at its best....A revealing investigative work." (Toronto Star)

Interesting reporter style narrative

This was not a great literary work, but was strangely engaging. It’s narrated by the author in a stiffly read, factual tone. He recounts conversations and incidents from his time working undercover in the mafia. I enjoyed it.

Phenomenally SAD story...

An excellent book written and read by Joe Pistone A.K.A. Donnie Brasco. There are great recordings of phone calls between Donnie and various made men woven within the actual story. Its very sad to me to hear about the end of that amazing and traditional culture known as La Cosa Nostra.

After listening you’ll know why they trusted Pistone

Just listening to Joe Pistone you can see why the mafia believed him. He sounds like a wise guy. His reading of the text is strained, but it actually lends itself to his credibility. He wasn’t taken under Sonny Blacks wings because of his oratory skills but because he was an earner.

Excellent

Phenomenal true story read by Donnie Brasco himself. Brings you deep into the bowels of the mafia
