This time, the great Spanish writer ventures into the world of the Church, recounting the experience of an official trip with the Pope. For the first time, the Vatican has opened its doors to a writer. And here is this book, a novel without fiction, by an "atheist, anticlerical, militant secularist, obstinate rationalist" Javier Cercas, who asks the big questions about belief and the Church's influence on the world.
