Negative Positive
Title: Barely readable...
Review: Despite all the positive reviews, I found this book to be barely readable. I was hoping to read a historical work on Japanese organized crime and ended up wallowing through a collection of anecdotes centered around Nick Zappetti, a frequently unlucky fellow whose restaurant was a crossroads for celebrities and criminals. All said and done, if you are looking for a reasonably scholarly work on Japanese organized crime, don't buy this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
