Title: Cheesy Farce Fiction
Product review: When I first picked up The DaVinci Code, I'll admit I was curious. Almost immediately the reader is catapulted into an intense Parisian murder scene at the Louvre. I was into it, really into it, I actually devoted up to six hours of a saturday to read this book. However, I found myself shaking my head more and more saying, "no, this is ridiculous." And then there just came a point when I said no to the whole idea of it. The distortion of facts about DaVinci and his paintings is just TOO much. Not only does the book become a complete farce, but the writing deteriorates at a rapid pace as well. The whole thriller starts unraveling with laughable coincidence that springs up from places where you would most obviously expect.The person I really felt bad for after putting this book down was the man who had been defamed with no way to save himself, that would be Leonardo DaVinci. Readers would be wiser to pick up an actual art history book that truthfully follows this master painter.
