More delicious than a slice of gabagool and ten times funnier than a screening of Cleaver, Off the Back of a Truck is an absolute must-read for any Sopranos super-fan. Insightful, witty, and astoundingly detailed, Nick Braccia's guide to the life and maybe-death of Tony Soprano is the next best thing to a trip to the Bada Bing. -Barry Hertz, Film Editor at The Globe and Mail I'm wrapping up my Sopranos rewatch. Sadly, all good things must come to an end. Luckily, when it comes to The Sopranos, there's plenty of ways to extend my passion. I'm immersed in Nick Braccia's Off the Back of a Truck: Unofficial Contraband for the Sopranos Fan , which offers all the listicles, hard-hitting essays, and fun trivia any devotee could desire, and more. -Liz French, Library Journal According to radio and TV producer Braccia, this grab bag of ephemera about HBO's Sopranos isn't a guide, it's a party. That description is largely correct, given that the book does not march from season one to six, but jumps all over in its eagerness to study aspects of the show's 86 episodes. He discusses the socioeconomics of the series (referring to the characters as the Italian-American Mafia's B-team at the turn of the millennium ), the history of director and producer David Chase's career (he wrote for The Rockford Files), and the show's influences (Chase drew from David Lynch to write the show's dream episodes). The writing of Braccia and a couple contributors-chef Eddie McNamara's passionate defense of Italian American red sauce cooking is a gem ( Food is my favorite character on The Sopranos, he writes)-are vibrant and astute enough to avoid full fanboy gushing. . . . At its best, this book slices and dices Sopranos lore with humor, insight, and unabashed devotion. -Publishers Weekly
