The whole idea of this book is to debunk the occult, you realized that, did you?

Anyone else think Eco is lifeless? He's definitely an expert at the "craft" side of writing but it's like he has nothing to say. He's just another fucking guy at the end of history shrugging his shoulders and playing with the fragments of genuine cultural and spiritual movements, of the epoch just before his.

The Spanish magic realists are just as bad for this. All this show for nothing. Murakami too.
