It was The Firm that earned him fame and recognition and the book was an
             instant bestseller (John Grisham, np). The story and the plot were so
             intriguing that the Paramount Pictures bought the book rights to be turned
             into a movie and we saw Tom Cruise in the most powerful and dynamic role.
             However, the Tom Cruise was not the only reason that made the film a
             success. The Firm, despite having minor errors, like the transition of the
             role of Abbey and the blindness of the protagonist to recognize or smell
             mafia connection with the law firm where in he was appointed, provides for
             a very interesting and intriguing story for the readers that they found it
             hard to put it down before finishing.
             This paper thus describes the story of the book, the plot and the different
             elements of interest in relation to the thesis statement of this report.
             Afterwards, in the conclusion I would give my own views about the book, the
             transition of the characters in the novel and the effects of these
             transitions on the relative characters and on the readers.
             The Firm (1991) is a book about a young lawyer, Mitch McDeere who has

             Thesis Statement: In his legal thriller The Firm, John Grisham explores
             the harsh world of corporate America, the personal sacrifice to achieve
             success and status, and finally the inner-struggle of one's own morality.
