New Fiction Books Main Character Was Once A Jesuit

Left-wing "social" Catholicism falsifies the Gospel and can promote violence, according to Catholic novelist Piers Paul Read's new book.

The Death of a Pope, published in America on May 1 and available in Britain later in the year, intertwines real events with fiction, and is likely to be controversial for its attacks on secularism and liberal Catholicism, especially liberation theology.

Mr Read told the Herald: "The anti-hero is an aid worker, a Basque who was once a Jesuit in Salvador and left to join the guerrillas. He's now an aid worker."
