ME AND MARIO is an intimate look at the life of Mario Puzo, author of The Godfather, and his insights on love, family, power and writing from his longtime love Carol Gino. In a world that often lacks magic and passion, Gino’s twenty-year relationship with Puzo was full of both. ME AND MARIO chronicles Gino’s transformation from healer to bestselling author and the love story between a radical feminist and the unabashedly romantic patriarch.
