Just finished pic related. What does /lit/ think of it? I hated it and loved it at the same time, it's kinda difficult to explain. The premise and the first 150 and last 150 pages are simply insanely well-written and paced. The middle section, though, yeesh.
This is Eco's best novel, no doubts about it.

i got my mother-in-law "the name of the rose" for her birthday last week. she's an episcopal priest who wrote a dissertation on medieval mystics. good choice or no?

It'd only be a bad choice if she's read it already. But if she hasn't it sounds like it was literally written for her.
>she's an episcopal priest who wrote a dissertation on medieval mystics.
I mean come on this is so perfect it feels like a ruse.

If she is into history, yeah, she will love it.

I hear that's his best novel. Has themes similar to her, should be good.
