Italian writer Andrea Camilleri
remains critical in Rome's Santo Spirito hospital after
suffering cardiac arrest but his condition is stable, sources
said on Tuesday.
The hospital is set to release an update on the condition of
the much-loved creator of Inspector Montalbano, arguably Italy's
most famous fictional detective, at midday, the sources said.
Camilleri, 93, became a best-selling author after he turned
60, and his books have sold millions of copies worldwide.
The TV adaptation of Montalbano's adventures, as well as a
spin-off, The Young Montalbano, are big hits in Italy and around
the world too.
