The Mobster Crime Novel And How It Works

By Deborah Anderson


A lot of people like books that are often genre stuff. Lots of genres have been made and new ones made each year, but the major genres have actually been defined already and anything new could be a combination of several old ones. The novel that is about criminals and detectives is classic and could also be infused with new stuff.

Mafiosi or people connected to the Italian Mafia have made for fascinating reading, but they are only a part of a general classification which will include any kind of organized criminal activity central to the theme of a book. The Mobster Crime Novel thus could include all sorts of groups. But the classic sense of the term is certainly about La Cosa Nostra, which is derived from Sicilian origins.

You may see the topic as something that had its day decades ago. The numerous books that were written were made into films or TV series, about the gangsters, their molls, crime operations, fights between authorities and between each other. The topic is certainly rife with dramatic potential and the tonalities could include the darker side of tragedy.

Crime is not something that many people go into willingly and the mobsters will be the last to admit that they like it. In fact, there is no liking this thing, but an acceptance and willingness to pay the price of their vocation is carried with laconic wit and mordant humor. The life portrayed here is in constant violent motion and danger.

They say criminals will pay but there could be a factor which mitigates this, when the persons involved act as Robin Hoods, fighting or stealing from the rich to help poor people. Some gangsters even have this kind of belief, because many may have joined to fight against oppression, injustice and a hated political system. They may even have been founded for protecting their own.

Laws here say that this might be wrong, although the Sicilians and African Americans in mobs point to oppressive laws and social systems. It means they have been fighting for having better laws, and those which are equal, less about having one specific group lord it over everyone else because they are supposed to be better. Discrimination, racism or prejudice could motivate folks to form mobs.

The book covering criminal activities and their histories or beliefs, and the dreams of folks involved should be researched well. Authors here could have been part of these groups, and have made it their focus to tell the world how truth works in these groups or movements. These often are real movements having good causes.

Oppressive systems often breed enemies, and folks that become these may be labeled criminal but the truth will not often be justified. The issues that have been discussed are often selling points for any book in this genre. Authors though are careful note spouse philosophies, but let them speak for themselves and how they play out as reality in the lives of characters.

All these make this novel a unique perspective into the real men and women who have thrown their lot in to leading dangerous lives. They may even be some of the most intelligent people around. And the way this novel is sought after is telling in that a lot of readers sympathize with the causes found in it.
