‘Sacred Bones’ Author at Library

The Westport Library tonight presented Publishers Weekly’s editor-at-large, Westporter Sybil Steinberg, who interviewed fellow Westporter and author Michael Spring about his new novel,”Sacred Bones: Confessions of a Medieval Grave Robber.” It is set in the ninth century based on the true story of a Roman deacon who worked in the catacombs and sold worthless bones as relics hoping to influence people to turn to religion. He wanted to save the historic real relics in a safe location for posterity. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Phyllis Groner for WestportNow.com
