i'm hesitant to post a topic about this book on a literature website, but i'm curious to see if anyone has read the "Left Behind" series, by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. I've read a few books of the series (there are currently 11 in print). In my opinion, the characters are painfully one-dimensional, the dialogue resembles nothing I have ever heard in a social setting, and the plot drags and jerks at random intervals.
The odd thing is that all of these books are very highly rated on amazon.com. I'd be interested to hear other's opinions of these books.
(R.E.L - You were wanting to know if Hemmingway was anti-semitic? These books most definitely are, along with anti-catholic and a slew of other biases.)
