Anatole France, Revolt of the Angels

[robot_mel]

I read Revolt of the Angels again for Bibliogoth, practically in one sitting. I really enjoyed it. Revolutionaries disguised as angels and politics disguised as religion. There are angels who read theology and become atheists or just abandon god for love of a woman. Then they try and take over heaven with bombs, with the backing of a fallen angel banker. It’s a book that hardly anyone has ever heard of but everyone I know whose read it has loved it and then passed in on to other people. Well worth a read if you can find a copy.
