Foucalt's Pendulum by Umberto Eco
Quote:
|
Three clever editors (who have spent altogether too much time reviewing crackpot manuscripts on the occult by fanatics and dilettantes) decide to have a little fun. They are inspired by an extraordinarily fable they heard years before from a suspiciously natty colonel, who claimed to know of a mystic source of power greater than atomic energy.

This book is incredibly well written. The author is nothing short of genius. Be warned, it is very thick reading, and may start to make your head hurt. But, if you like to think while you read, this is the book for you.
