This is christian fiction, and it's really badly written. This is not christian fiction on the literary and allegorical level of Narnia, it's christian fiction on the literary level of Sweet Valley High, but with less character depth and worse plot placing. I read it because it was free on Nook a few weeks ago, and although I'm not a christian, I found the premise (post-rapture world) to be one that had promise. Unfortunately, rather than write a great book focused on plot and character development with broad appeal, they chose to write a sub-par vehicle for proselytizing. One suspects they intend this book to have broad appeal, and that the horrors they recite (rather than show) will convert non-christians through the power of literature and whatnot. Except the writing is really awful, and it very clearly caters to christian beliefs (and, from what I understand, it's a very specific subset of christian belief). And I don't mean it caters to christian beliefs in the way that a book about the rapture, a book that presupposes heaven and god and all that are real would. It caters to christian beliefs by doing the following: 1. Depicts those left behind as suffering from pride, anger, resentment, or rebellion, especially if they already have christian family/ friends. 2. Has a lot of preaching and discussion of christian beliefs and accepting Jesus. Most of these religious conversations feel forced and awkward in the settings they're in. 3. Propagates a specific evangelical viewpoint that christians are saved by grace, not by works, which is a pretty horrific idea when you think about it from a moral and ethical viewpoint.

There are not words to describe how much I adore this book. It's a definite departure from the style of his previous books (all of which I admire as much); it's much less funny (though still often wryly humourous), and belongs much less to the magical realist style. De Bernieres deftly intersperses the life of the fictional Turkish town of Eskibahce at the time of the Great War with an account of the history of the times and the life of Mustafa Kemal. It's a period and a region which I didn't know a great deal about, and I felt as if I had come away from the book with some new knowledge of the last days of the Ottoman Empire, and the beginnings of the Turkish Republic. De Bernieres also brings a high degree of irony to his work, especially when he is disecting the history of the region, the intertwined cultures of 'Greek' Christians and 'Turkish' Muslims, and the way in which they are forcibly divided at the end of the war. It's not an easy read in points; de Bernieres uses a lot of different characters and viewpoints throughout the book, and some of the characters, when recalling their former lives, ramble quite a bit (if quite believably so). There is not the same level of humour to help the reader through some of the tragedy which befalls the characters as, for example, you get in Corelli's Mandolin. But I think it's still a wonderful book, and well worth the read.
