Christian fiction, the saying goes, has been steadily building market share across the last two decades and promises to yield even more mammon in the coming years. (Lest we forget, a good deal of the canon of English literature of the past has Christian elements or themes, but faith was noticeably absent in American popular literature until the present rush began.) Gandolpho (English, US Military Academy) assesses the new crop of fiction and its impact on American popular culture, including the recent blockbuster that had something to do with Da Vinci and the popular series about the Rapture. Along the way she shows how the rise of such pop and serious reading mirrors the preoccupation of the society, noting the particular elements of faith in the most popular products and applying them to recent cultural phenomena.
