Biography
Roberto Saviano was born on 1979. He is an Italian writer and journalist.
In his writings, articles and books he employs prose and news-reporting
style to narrate the story of the Camorra (a powerful Neapolitan
mafia-like organization), exposing its territory and business connections.
In 2006, following the publication of his bestselling book Gomorra,
where he describes the clandestine particulars of the Camorra business,
Saviano has been threatened by several Neapolitan “godfathers”. The
Italian Minister of the Interior has granted him a permanent police
escort.
