Novelist Piers Paul Read: "The Death of a Pope"
Host Ed Goldberg interviews British writer Piers Paul Read, author of The Death of a Pope, a thriller involving the politics of The Vatican and liberation theology.
Read is best known for his non-fiction book Alive: The Story of the Andes Survivors which documented the story of the 1972 crash of Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 in the Andes mountains. Alive won the Thomas More Medal for the most distinguished contribution to Catholic literature in 1974 and has sold more than five million copies worldwide. The book was adapted into the 1993 film Alive: The Miracle of the Andes.
