A marine biologist, she left for a routine expedition months earlier, only this time her submarine sank to the sea floor. When she finally surfaces and returns home, her wife Miri knows that something is wrong. Barely eating and lost in her thoughts, Leah rotates between rooms in their apartment, running the taps morning and night. Whatever happened in that vessel, whatever it was they were supposed to be studying before they were stranded, Leah has carried part of it with her, onto dry land and into their home. As Miri searches for answers, desperate to understand what happened below the water, she must face the possibility that the woman she loves is slipping from her grasp. By turns elegiac and furious, wry and heartbreaking, Our Wives Under the Sea is an exploration of the unknowable depths within each of us, and the love that compels us nevertheless toward one another.

THE GREATEST TRUTH OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS THE GOLDEN RULE. 3. EARTHLINGS ARE SOULS WITH BODIES, NOT BODIES WITH SOULS. 4. THERE IS LIFE AFTER RELIGION. IT IS CALLED SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT OR THE REVELATION OF THE SOUL. IT IS YOUR UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. 5. OUR EARTHLY LIFETIME IS JUST ONE OF MANY UNCOUNTABLE LIFETIMES ON DIFFERENT WORLDS THAT WILL EVENTUALLY BRING US TO GOD. WHEN YOU DIE YOU CAN BE REINCARNATED ON THIS WORLD, GO TO ANOTHER WORLD, GO TO A COUNCIL FOR ADVICE, OR GO TO SCHOOL. 6. ALL EARTHLY RELIGIONS ARE MAN-MADE AND ARE BASED ON MYTHOLOGY AND FAITH. 7. BY DESIGN, THE WORLD IS ABOUT MONEY, RELIGION IS ABOUT CONTROL, AND SEX IS ABOUT PLEASURE. 8. GOD IS NO RESPECT OF PERSONS. HE CARES ONLY ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE, NOT WHAT YOU DO. 9. THE ONLY JUDGMENTAL SIN ON EARTH IS DELIBERATELY HURTING ANOTHER PERSON OUT OF REVENGE, OR FOR YOUR OWN PERSONAL GAIN. THIS TRUTH SHOWS THAT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS ARE A MYTH, CREATED BY MOSES TO CONTROL THE HEBREWS. 10. BE IN THE WORLD, BUT NOT OF THE WORLD. MANY ARE CALLED, BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN.

Book excerpt: In his first novel since Corelli’s Mandolin, Louis de Bernières creates a world, populates it with characters as real as our best friends, and launches it into the maelstrom of twentieth-century history. The setting is a small village in southwestern Anatolia in the waning years of the Ottoman Empire. Everyone there speaks Turkish, though they write it in Greek letters. It’s a place that has room for a professional blasphemer; where a brokenhearted aga finds solace in the arms of a Circassian courtesan who isn’t Circassian at all; where a beautiful Christian girl named Philothei is engaged to a Muslim boy named Ibrahim. But all of this will change when Turkey enters the modern world. Epic in sweep, intoxicating in its sensual detail, Birds Without Wings is an enchantment.
