In The Sopranos: Born under a Bad Sign, Franco Ricci presents an insightful analysis of the groundbreaking HBO series and its complex psychological themes.‘Ricci’s book is a carefully considered and detailed study with an exhaustive and nuanced understanding of the show’
-- James McNamara * Australian Book Review, January-February 2015 *‘Franco Ricci’s The Sopranos: Born under a Bad Sign provides an interesting take on a controversial, but much-heralded, television series…. It is an important read for those interested in psychoanalysis, social commentary, history, and American popular culture.’
-- Nick Giorgio * H-Italy December 2014 *‘The Sopranos is a unique, extended meditation on Chase as auteur… This book should be of interest to students and scholars in film/television studies, media studies, Italian American studies and related fields. Ricci’s analysis also stands as a useful and usefully extended, case study for those interested in semiotics, mass media, and aesthetics.’
-- Michael R. Frontani * Italian American Review winter 2015 *‘Ricci’s study is compelling, innovative, and even surprisingly moving.’
-- Liz Roberts * Media Education Journal vol 57:2015 *Franco Ricci is a professor of Italian Studies at the University of Ottawa.
