Foucault's Pendulum - Umberto Eco

I'm on page 50. I think you have freed me from the necessity of continuing.

Don't give up on Eco. Once you get through the very beginning, the rest of the book is a total delight. It is a terrific read. Sort of the anti-da Vinci Code.

Please don't stop... one of the quotes Eco is most quoted on is "...the first one hundred pages of my book is the price you pay for a good story and if you can't do that, you don't deserve it"
