Which of these two books is more unbearable?
>>25615625I have The Name of The Rose on my tbr. What’s so unbearable about it?
>>25615653Author thinks making surface level references makes him genius meanwhile he fails at basics.
>>25615625The left one. My main criticism being it's unbearable lightness.
>>25615773I thought about naming that joke. Thanks for confirming to me that it is very lame
>>25615658what's your favourite book
>>25616188Blood meridian
>>25615658>medievalist with tenure fails at basics Kill yourself
>>25616650It's hard to imagine Eco was a medievalist. Though I am sure that it was much more primitive back in his day. The only good book he ever wrote was Ur-fascism because it made me realize that everyone is an unwitting fascist.
>>25616698OP is right that name of the rose is shit, but Foucault’s Pendulum is good. Pure paranoia
>>25615625Given Autonomia failed the one about the PCI in the 1970s.
