Yacowar helps us understand exactly why we can't get enough of Tony Soprano and that colorful mafia family that we hate to love and often love to hate! This pop-culture sensation is not only the most controversial series on television, but also the most provocative, thoughtful, and complex. Its language and themes have stretched the norms of commercial television, many characters and phrases having entered our everyday life.<em>The Sopranos on the Couch</em> is the first book to provide a compact, lively, and authoritative examination of each episode and season - the themes, inside jokes, and allusions - thereby putting the series into a broader cultural context.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>..".an excellent overview of the series, as much an episode guide as a serious study....Yacowar's book will confirm your opinion that 'The Sopranos' is clever and compelling."<br><br>..".an excellent overview of the series, as much an episode guide as a serious study....Yacowar's book will confirm your opinion that 'The Sopranos' is clever and compelling."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Maurice Yacowar is a retired professor of English and Film Studies at the University of Calgary.
