  • NAPLES, ITALY - 30 JULY 2018: Roberto Saviano (center), an Italian journalist, writer and essayist is seen here with his police escort by the Vele di Scampia (English: Sails of Scampia), a large urban housing project and one of the poorest and most disadvantaged in the country, here in Naples, Italy, on July 30th 2018.<br />
<br />
Thanks to Roberto Saviano’s bestselling book “Gomorrah” — and subsequent film and TV series — the the Vele di Scampia are known worldwide as a hotbed for drugs, prostitution and the mafia. In 2016 the city council announced an ambitious €58 million plan to tear down three of the decaying buildings and convert the fourth into offices.<br />
<br />
After the first death threats of 2006 by the Casalese clan , a cartel of the Camorra, which he denounced in his exposé and in the piazza of Casal di Principe during a demonstration in defense of legality, Roberto Saviano was put under a strict security protocol. Since 2006 Roberto Saviano has lived under police protection.<br />
<br />
Saviano's latest novel "The Piranhas", which tells the story of the rise of  a paranza (or Children's gang) and it leader Nicolas, will be released in the United States on September 4th 2018.

  • NAPLES, ITALY - 30 JULY 2018: A view of the Vele di Scampia (English: Sails of Scampia), a large urban housing project built between 1962 and 1975 in the Scampia neighbourhood, one of the poorest and most disadvantaged in Italy, is seen here in Naples, Italy, on July 30th 2018.<br />
<br />
Thanks to Roberto Saviano’s bestselling book “Gomorrah” — and subsequent film and TV series — the the Vele di Scampia are known worldwide as a hotbed for drugs, prostitution and the mafia. In 2016 the city council announced an ambitious €58 million plan to tear down three of the decaying buildings and convert the fourth into offices.<br />
<br />
After the first death threats of 2006 by the Casalese clan , a cartel of the Camorra, which he denounced in his exposé and in the piazza of Casal di Principe during a demonstration in defense of legality, Roberto Saviano was put under a strict security protocol. Since 2006 Roberto Saviano has lived under police protection.<br />
