Death row nun writes new book -23/9/03

Sister Helen Prejean, whose book inspired the Oscar-winning movie Dead Man Walking, is writing a second book, the Toledo Blade reported yesterday. The 64-year-old nun said her new work describes her experiences in counselling two death-row inmates, Dobie Williams of Louisiana and Joseph O'Dell of Virginia. "The working title is Machinery and Death, in which I tell the story of two people that I believe were innocent that I accompanied to executions," she said.
