De Bernières, Louis

Birds without wings / Louis de Bernières - New York : Knopf , 2004 - 553 p. ; 21 cm.

A novel about the political and personal costs of war, and of love-between men and women, between friends, between those who are driven to be enemies. It is the story of a small coastal town in South West Anatolia in the dying days of the Ottoman Empire told in the richly varied voices of the people-Christians and Muslims of Turkish and Greek and Armenian descent-whose lives are rooted there, intertwined for untold years.
