Made in America and the Hidden Stories of The Sopranos by Steve Else shows how most viewers have misunderstood the mysterious finale of television’s greatest drama. It is shown to be one of a number of narratives secreted within The Sopranos which require extra attention to be paid to subtle clues. Made in America is revealed as a dream of the central character Tony Soprano, the final one of a series of his presented in the show. This fully referenced book, the first full-length analysis of the finale, outlines the deficiencies of influential commentators and offers reasons why interviews of David Chase, creator of The Sopranos, are not always as reliable as one would hope. The way in which Tony dies at the final cut to black is explained: while consistent with how he has lived, it is not at all like many have come to believe. Other hidden stories are also examined, including the true culprit behind the killing of the horse Pie-O-My. This expanded edition, almost twice the length of the first, shows that there is even more to this most complex of dramas than you ever realised.
