Book Description
'What he did for the Victorian novel in The Crimson Petal and the White Faber now does for the bestselling books du jour.' Guardian
From the Back Cover
'A thriller of a story.'
The Times
'The satire is so entertaining, the pace so sharp, the writing so witty . . . it's effortless to consume.'
Observer
When Theo Griepenkerl happens upon the fifth Gospel in a war-torn Iraqi museum, he can't believe his luck. Driven by greed and a lust for fame, he capitalises on his find by publishing it. His book is a sensation. But he can hardly imagine the incendiary consequences his discovery will have for Christians, Arabs, homicidal maniacs and Amazon customers alike.
The Fire Gospel is a brilliant piece of storytelling, dazzlingly outrageous and utterly gripping.
'Faber's latest bristles with tightly edited ideas . . . This is a lean, controlled, instantly engrossing book.' *****
