Title: A shipwrecked book
Review: The meanderings of Eco in this book are as dull as the main character. Literary devices used, like a strong interrupting narrative voice that pops up randomly, just seems heavy-handed and insincere. Having just finished his _Foucault's Pendulum_, I was very let down and had to speed-read the last chapters just to get through it without admitting I blew 20 bucks. We know you are brilliant and knowledgeable, Mr. Eco--you don't have to prove it--just tell us a good story.
