Talk:The Fixer (novel)

Catholic vs. Russian Orthodox
There are some fairly interesting differences between the actual case and The Fixer. One of the more significant is that the religious "expert" was a catholic priest in the Beilis case whereas The Fixer has him being Russian Orthodox; in reality, no Russian Orthodox priests were willing to lend support to the idea of ritual murder.--Jrm2007 05:56, 15 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Actually, the priest in the book is a former catholic, so Malamud nods to fact somewhat.--Jrm2007 (talk) 01:25, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
