I belong to a book club on Longboat Key, FL, and
we had a speakerphone conference with you the
day we discussed Pope Joan. We all enjoyed the
session so much! The book had greater meaning
because we could ask you questions
"face-to-face." We're all looking forward to
seeing the movie when it comes here. Hope it's
soon!

It was a thrill and a pleasure to be present at
noon today at the St. Thomas
Women's Center book group discussion of your
book, POPE JOAN. Immediately
after we closed speakerphone link with you, we
all gathered around the Center's small
computer to watch the POPE JOAN movie trailer.[see
the trailer here] It does indeed
touch upon
many of the topics we spoke about today.
Everyone enjoyed Pope Joan, and we are all in
admiration of the depth of your investigations
and the worthiness of your historical novel.
I do hope a way can be found so that the film
can be shown in our Twin Cities area one way or
another.

I think it's safe to say that at our book club
meeting last night, we managed to "convert"
every member into a Pope Joan fanatic ! Thank
you so very much for participating in a most
exciting meeting and providing so much insight
into the creation of the book and film. After
you hung up, we were all "stoked" to let the
publishing and film industry know of this books'
importance!
After last night, you will have several more

I have been a reader all my life (64 years) and
Pope Joan is on my "best book top 5" list.
I have told many people about the wonderful book
you have written and movie. I will continue to
tell my friends and fellow readers about Pope
Joan.
I am a practicing Catholic. But, I wonder if
part of the problem of getting the movie
released in the United States, is because of the
Catholic Church. I hate to say and think that,
but, unfortunately it is a possibility.
I believe it is time for me to read the book
again. I very rarely read books twice -- but, I
will read your beautiful book again. Thank you
for keeping us up-dated on your quest.

for our July read. They gave the novel a very

said it led to a great deal of discussion and
questions. We were also very taken by your book.
It was

Our book club meeting about Pope Joan lasted
twice as long as a normal meeting. It turned out
that we have among us one fellow who is
somewhere between an atheist and an agnostic.
Another was brought up in the Catholic Church
and a long succession of Catholic educational
institutions.
At the end of the session, one of our members
took a poll on the question “how much of this do
you believe?” Most swallowed it to the 90%
level, with the Catholic member at 100%. The
religiously deprived member was at zero. How’s
that for consistency?
All our members enjoyed the book very much for
its content and story-telling skills. For a
group largely dedicated to non-fiction, we all
were charmed! We were so knocked off our
pins that we chose a Farewell to Arms as our
next book.

Our book club has been meeting for several years
and it is rare for all of
our members to like the monthly book we
read--until "Pope Joan".
We all really loved the book; in fact one of our
members said it is the best book
she ever read! Donna joined us by speakerphone
for our book club discussion,
and it was fantastic to ask questions directly
to the author. We typically
try to "get into the author's head" via our book
club members thoughts and
questions, but we were able to literally do that
having Donna on the phone
chatting with us. It was awesome! This book was
recommended to us by my
sister who lives in New Hampshire. Her book club
had read it and loved
it too. I strongly recommend Pope Joan for a
book club and to anyone looking for
a good read.

Pope Joan was recommended by an avid reader. Our
group likes books about strong
women. I could not put the book down; it is one
of the best I've EVER read.
I could practically smell the stench of the
sewers and see the blood
splatter. I loved how it moved quickly but said
so much; there are no
wasted words just to make it book length. I was
amazed at the research that
must have gone into it. I've never read a
historical fiction book that
strove any harder to come close to the facts.
Thank you!

you speak in New York. This is my first time
recommending a book to my

ever been about a woman, so
I shamed the chauvinists into selecting Pope
Joan. I will experience a
certain amount of glee in observing their
enjoying it, as I have. Doug

Hello, I just stumbled upon this site and wanted
to tell you how much I
liked this novel. It was the first one that I
couldn't put down. I was
reading 7+ hours, which was unusual for me. I
think, as an author, knowing
that your work had that effect on someone who
barely reads might be of some
kind of importance to you. All the work you put
into that novel really paid
off.
Thank you for all the hours of joy.
AUTHOR REPLY:
Yes, Gerold, it means very much to me to know
that you were moved by Joan's story, as I was.
So thank you for writing to tell me. Alas, you
did not include your return email address, so I
could not respond to your very nice message.

My daughter also has your book and also LOVED,
LOVED it.....two generations (mother-daughter)
that so adored your writing and your story.
I hope HOLLYWOOD has not changed your book when

S. António). St Antony was born in Lisbon in
1195, 300 before the story of
Pope Joan.If the Saint is not St Antony of
Lisbon (or Padue) I would like to know what
Saint he is. Thank you.
Author reply:
I'm glad to learn that you enjoyed my novel,
Miguel. In response to your query: there is more
than one St. Anthony in history, and the one I
had in mind was not your Portuguese saint. I was
referencing St. Anthony of Egypt, also known as
the Father of All Monks, to whom the faithful of
the ninth century often prayed when afflicted
with skin or infectious diseases.

Congratulations on the sell-out of the

but I would really like to know if and

As you know, your book was a great
success here (in humble Israeli standards of
course), and I know that many people are looking
forward to the movie. Our book club (which you
named "the multiple-question-book-club" during

We all enjoyed it very much. It's an
excellently made movie and I felt they did an

the movie that my daughter completely followed

the book. Yes, she wants to read it now.
It was well l worth the trip down from

Your book "Pope Joan" was given me by my
daughter because of my interest in history. I
read very few novels, but this one caught my
interest. The details of life in that era were
very interesting to me. I really enjoyed the
book and am reading it for the second time.
I hope to see the movie when it is
released. Thanks for your detailed research.

Joan and LOVED it! The historical as well as

being a strong women is most

only agree with everybody that it's
perfect. Johanna does an amazing job as
Joan, and I don't want to start to
talk about David because every time I see
him on screen I start
hyperventilating... So see you have
brought to me two things... An amazing
piece of literature which I can't wait to

for all you have given to me... I wish I

said good-bye and we had so much to talk about!
I want to see if I can get my hands on that
interview you did with Diane Sawyer about the
evidence for Pope Joan's existence.
You gave us so many great suggestions for
new books to read. I hope we weren't too nosey
and our questions didn't offend you! We've been
together for so many years that we have a
tendency to say whatever is on our minds. You
fit right in like you were one of us! Thank you,
thank you, thank you. My best wishes to you and
your family for a wonderful holiday season and
new year. May you be blessed with 100 new best
sellers and the red carpet premieres to go with
them. Your generosity will always be remembered
by this dedicated reader.

journalism piece is very informative, filled
with "insider" images of Pope Joan right inside
the Vatican itself (some of which even I didn't
get to see) as well as interviews with priests,
liturgical scholars, and writers on both sides
of the "did Joan actually live?" debate.

This is Patricia Calvert writing you from

conversation with you for my book club,
ONE Great Book Club, early this
month, do you remember? I had just gotten
back from Jordan and told you
that I was leaving for my annual trip to
Europe. I come back to Cologne every
year to visit dear friends, as I used to
live here.
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know
that two nights ago, I was in Cologne shopping
and went to
see the film in the afternoon. Donna, I
loved it! It was really well done
and I thought it followed your wonderful
book very nicely. There were a couple
of things that were different, but they
did not take away from the beauty of
the film. Congratulations! Now all of my
club members are so jealous that I
have seen it and they haven't! It was a
pleasure reading your book and seeing the film.

loved the book, and suggested the read for
January. I saw that a lot of
other book groups had read it, and our group
voted for it as a selection.
It would be wonderful to have our speakerphone
conversation with the author
on the date I entered on the
chat request form. As we are all very busy
teachers,
it is difficult to offer other dates to meet.
Now I found out later that the movie is coming
soon to Washington, D.C., so we're
setting up a date to see it as a group!

well researched, and I wondered where
could you be to do all that research?

I suggested Pope Joan since it fit this

excited
about discussing it by speakerphone with

A friend of mine in another town belongs
to a Book Group that read Pope
Joan last year. One day my friend handed
me the book & simply said, "Read
it; you'll love it."
She was right; I couldn't put it down!
Pope Joan quickly became one of my
favorite books because I love historical
fiction. History becomes fascinating when
you are connecting with strong characters
like Joan. When it came time to select
books for our 2009 Book Club, Pope Joan
was at the top of my list to recommend for
a few different reasons: simply put, it's
just a great read; the element of controversy
makes for interesting discussion; and the
idea of such a passionate woman so taken
with learning is intriguing - all
components for a terrific book discussion.
I know this is extremely short notice to
schedule a speakerphone chat with the
the author (I just found out it was
possible!) Even if Ms. Cross is only available
for 10 or 15 minutes, we would be
thrilled to hear from her! Thank you for your
consideration!

Pope Joan was given to me by a mutual friend of

She and the book have encouraged me to move

Joan reminds us the quality of our lives depends
on the quality of our
thoughts and that chasing our dreams, albeit
difficult, is worth it.
Many of our book club members are professors and
K-12 teachers. We are
falling in love with Joan and are dedicated to
getting the word out about her
excellent example of courage, dedication, and
the power of an inquisitive

he hope to convert her or did he just like the

what we are reading. I was a history major, and
I had never heard about the
female pope and can't wait to read your book and
speak with you. The
majority of our book club are elementary school
teachers and we often have
our students contact favorite authors and we
thought we should lead by
example by inviting you to participate in our
book club discussion...

I just couldn’t resist reaching out to tell you
that I adored your novel. I had trouble putting
it down, so much so that my five-year-old
daughter asked, “Mommy, why are you ALWAYS
reading that book?” The combination of
meticulously-researched historical detail paired
with a beautifully-written, compelling story was
irresistible! Congratulations – I can’t imagine
how it must feel to generate a book that is so
outstanding.
I am looking forward to the movie and your next
novel.

Hi! I really want to see the movie version of
Pope Joan in my country! (Peru) but not in
video.... at the cinema! It is very important
for me and a lot of others who really like the
book. I'm waiting to see the movie soon!

I would bring all my girlfriends to see
the movie version of Pope Joan. We are starving
for strong female leads.

Loved every page of Pope Joan! The best book
I have read in a long time and I am really
