>>	Anonymous Tue May 14 11:16:52 2013 No.3757173 Dan Brown is a poor, shit, dumb, illiterate man's Umberto Eco. Foucalt's Pendulum does everything Brown wishes he could do, and does it ten thousand times better.

>>	Anonymous Tue May 14 21:23:53 2013 No.3759138 So... Dan Brown is establishing himself as the next great literary genius. The game-changer, so to speak. As Dante invoked Virgil. So too will Dan Brown invoke Dante. And the torch is passed on.
