Description
In the remote Aspromonte Mountains, three friends embark on a life of crime to escape their poverty-stricken childhoods. Luciano's past informs his behind-the-scenes schemes, while Luigi's lack of discipline leads him down a path of lawlessness. The unnamed narrator, driven by a dark energy, fuels each new venture, from kidnapping to heroin dealing and contract killing. Set against the backdrop of Calabria's notorious mafia, Black Souls explores the cycle of violence that arises from desperation and poverty. Drawing on centuries of brigand lore, peasant rebellion history, and colonial suffering, this gripping morality tale delves into the consequences of a life lived in the shadows. A gripping exploration of the destructive nature of crime, Black Souls offers a thought-provoking read for those interested in the darker aspects of human nature.
