funny you should ask

you can't really compare dan brown to charles dickens.

dan brown is essentially a writer of nonfiction. his novels are research papers in history and art history, but he markets them as fiction and inserts a protagonist so that they'll sell.

the da vinci code is as reliable a work of art history as any college textbook.

alright all you clove-smoking, dead-russian-author-reading, non-lit-related-thread-saging, ayn-rand-loving-or-hating /lit/fags, listen up: literature is the subject of a major current news item, and for the first time in your sexless lives it doesn't involve some inane contemporary vision on what it would be like if wizards or vampires went to high school. no, this is much more important: some asshole in florida is going to burn a bunch of books about genies and some other really badass shit! and we're not happy about that! or maybe we are, i don't really care what position we take -- but we must take one and mount a full-frontal assault until we have bill o'reilley referring to /lit/ as a bunch of readers on steroids. what do you say, /lit/?
