✦ Synopsis

Quand l’un des fondateurs du nouveau journalisme s’empare d’un des plus grands procès de la mafia.

Père, homme d’affaires, escroc, voleur : Burton Kaplan est tout sauf un mouchard. En neuf ans d’emprisonnement, il n’a jamais craqué. Mais lorsque le procès des deux flics corrompus lors duquel il est appelé à comparaître débute, coup de théâtre : Kaplan sort du silence et déballe tout sur ses activités au sein de la mafia newyorkaise, façon Les Affranchis.
Dans ce récit passionnant, le grand journaliste Jimmy Breslin, l’un des pères du Nouveau journalisme, retrace la vie, les affaires et le témoignage de Burton Kaplan, dont l’histoire est aussi celle de l’escalade puis du déclin de la mafia aux États-Unis au cours du xxe siècle.

Traduit de l’anglais (États-Unis) par Souad Degachi et Maxime Shelledy
