The Godfather is a must-read for anyone interested in the mafia and crime-fiction genre. The book is a masterpiece, showcasing the criminal underworld in the 1940s. It tells the story of the Corleone family, a notorious mafia family involved in blackmail, murder, and other illegal activities. The book portrays Don Vito Corleone's life, the head of the family, and his three sons. Michael Corleone, the youngest son, is the protagonist who is a war veteran and is not initially involved in the family business but is drawn into it eventually.
