Alive in Necropolis

Listen to RealMedia Stream

The city of Colma, just south of San Francisco, is known for having 2,000 living residents and more than two million dead ones. The cemeteries of Colma serve as the fog-bound setting of Doug Dorst's entertaining and fantastical first novel, "Alive in Necropolis." Our book critic Oscar Villalon has a review. Reporter: Oscar Villalon
