Imagine living across the street from the Gambino crime family's infamous Manhattan headquarters. Writer Alec Wilkinson did just that during the rise of the Gotti-era mafia presence in Little Italy, New York, in the 1980s. Based on true accounts of Alec and others, The Ravenite is a lighthearted glimpse into a never-before-seen side of the mob - the absurd and unnerving daily realities of what it was like to be their neighbor. You'll never look at the mafia in the same way again!
