The Pope in Winter: The Dark Face of John Paul II's Papacy

by John Cornwell - £18.99  Penguin (2005)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780141020716 | ISBN 10: 0141020717

The late John Paul II was portrayed by admirers as one of history's great popes. But in "The Pope in Winter", leading Vatican expert John Cornwell seriously questions the workings of his papacy and points to fundamental flaws - his apparent contempt for women, his refusal to listen to his grassroots, his dodgy saints, his opposition to contraception and his failure to deal with the church's sex-abuse scandal - that have alarming consequences for the Catholic Church's future.
