Birds Without Wings by Louis de Bernières

4.0

Like Corelli's Mandolin, extremely well written, and a very thorough history of the end of the Ottoman Empire and the birth of modern Turkey, complete with the story of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. I would have given the story five stars, but it dig drag on a bit as the separate tales wove together. Nevertheless, an excellent work of historical fiction, giving great insight into the Armenian - Turk - Kurd - Greek antipathies.
