John Paul II has died, and I was reminded of the insane popularity of The Da Vinci Code. [via Chicken or Beef?] For a trashy fun and paranoid read on the pope before last, get the, to me, far better novel (under the guise of non-fiction), Yallop’s In God's Name: An Investigation into the Murder of Pope John Paul I. Calvi, Gelli, and P2 (Propaganda Due). The funnier parts of Godfather, Part III are based on similar material. I first read about Il Crack Sindona in a series of articles in the Wall Street Journal.
