Negative Positive
Title: Eco fails - Not up to his other novels
Review: The tale is confused and bloated. The Island of the Day before comes across as self-indulgent and would have been better left in manuscript form.I am ardent fan of The Name of the Rose and Foucault's Pendulum, yet if this had been my introduction to Eco I would never had read those books.This book is I am afraid to say uncaptivating and frankly boring.
Is the review positive or negative?
