The mafioso friend turns out to be gay!!! Wow what a brilliant twist! I guess this appeases beating the Parisian Priest to death - what goes around comes around - oh the irony.... Oh James you Criminal!!!If you want to read a brilliantly written review of this book then read John Dolan's review on www.exile.ruhttp://www.exile.ru/2005-September-09/freys_fairy_godfather_.htmlHe also reviews A Million Little Pieces which had me in stitches last night.http://www.exile.ru/2003-May-29/book_review.htmlJames Frey should be ashamed of himself, though I'm guessing there's not much room for shame in someone with so obvious a case of narcissistic personality disorder.Sure hope he puts all that dosh to good use.Seek help James.
