Umberto Eco and Don Jim
Father Tucker continues to prove his intelligence by suggesting conspiracy-hungry readers try Umberto Eco's witty Foucault's Pendulum instead of Dan Brown's lumpen Da Vinci Code. Foucault's Pendulum is one of my favorite "secular" novels, and Eco makes for truly intelligent reading. While you're at it, check out the Porta Ludovica website for more Eco semiotical fun. Also, coming back to the source, be sure to see the good priest's thoughts on General Lee on the occasion of Marse Robert's birthday.
