Naples anti-mafia writer Roberto
Saviano and the two protagonists of the hit TV series on the
Camorra adapted from his book Gomorra, Salvatore Esposito and
Marco D'Amore, have made the cover of the next issue of Rolling
Stone Italia ahead of the eagerly awaited second season starting
next month on Sky Atlantic here,
"We had a good time imagining the best Italian V series,
Gomorra, as if it was a heavy-metal album: a dark, screaming,
ugly world, even more so than Metallica's Kill'Em All, but
played by good guys - directors, actors and screenwriters -
armed only, as Roberto Saviano says in the interview, by the
optimism of reason", said editor-in-chief Giovanni Robertini.
Saviano told the magazine: "In Gomorra the winners are
those who don't trust anyone, those who consider others as means
to an end.
"The winners are those who aren't afriad of dying and know
that power is only obtained by risking one's death. Those who
try to protect themselves don't make progress, don't have a
chance of succeeding".
Saviano said he "hated" the Camorristi who have forced him
to live in 24-hour police protection but he felt compassion when
he saw dead bodies left by the Camorra.
