Review title: Not worth the controversy
Product review: What's the big deal? This is a lousy book and not even worth the effort of a death threat. Obscurity is a far worthier fate for it. Yes, it's blasphemous to Islam but the sacrilege is in the context of the rantings of a mad man who's in the throes of a crisis of faith. So once you're over the shock, and once you note that most of the characters in it should be committed, the blasphemy''s pretty easy to dismiss. What's harder to ignore is that as a piece of literature, this is a hard to read and schizophrenically written book. What exactly is it saying? What's with the weird fantasy plot - two people falling off a plane and one turns into a devil and the other an angel - that meanders without any discernible purpose? It's funny in spots and brilliant in others but it's so uneven in quality and has very dull long stretches it's as if it really is written by someone insane. Um ... maybe it was.
