Novels about an unseen christ-like figure. Sort of an every day messiah, but on a small scale. A man who's nice to his wife, even though he's having a horrible day himself, because someone ate his Hershey's bar.

such an absurd book---god goes through all that just to save in that one instance that one preposterous event from being more damaging than it might have been
read The World According To Garp if you are going to read an Irving---Garp is christ-like in his own, more nuanced way
Being nice to your wife despite having a bad day doesn't make you Christ-like, it makes you a mature and responsible adult. I mean, let's not set the bar too low or anything.
