Bright Lights, Baked Ziti The Unofficial, Unauthorised Guide to the Sopranos

The Sopranos is a cultural phenomenon loved by audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. This award-winning drama breathed new life into the Italian/American mobster narrative, following the complex life of Tony Soprano - a major player in New Jersey's organised crime fraternity who is also trying his best to be a good family man. His everyday dilemmas make for wonderful television as he juggles the demands of his home life with those of the Mob. Great characterisation, sharp dialogue and complex, darkly comic plotlines make the series compulsive viewing. The lavish production values make each episode seem like a feature film in its own right.

The highlights of each episode are presented in an accessible, hugely entertaining format with obsessive attention to detail. It's all in here: the food, the music, the dreams, the visits to the psychiatrist, the snappy one-liners - plus all your favourite characters and five stand-alone essays about the series.
