Umberto Eco: The Name of the Rose. You are a
mystery novel dealing with theology, especially
with catholic vs liberal issues. You search
wisdom and knowledge endlessly, feeling that
learning is essential in life.
Which literature classic are you?

And here I thought it was going to come up LOTR. Funky. I never read Name of the Rose, but Foucault's Pendulum was pretty cool. Mind you, The Island of the Day Before was the first book I ever wanted to hurl across the room so that it cracked the author upside the head and knocked him ass over teakettle- but I really liked Foucault's pendulum.
I also think that every time an Eco book gets rendered into English, an asylum in Italy somewhere opens up another private room, and the translator is ushered in to spend the next six months putting his brain back together. But that's me.
