Homework...

A few years ago, I turned into a Dan Brown fan.  I like the way he writes: his novels are "page turners," for sure!!  He incorporates history and art into the very heart of several of his best novels.  I love that!  But the suspense...it's great. 


His latest novel will be released in May.  It focuses again on Robert Langdon; this time he's in Italy.  He's drawn into the literary world of Dante's Inferno.  Evidently this famous poem has clues he must use to solve the mysteries that will ensue. 

Unfortunately, I never did have to read Dante's works in college, so I've got to get familiar with it and will be reading about  Inferno before I receive the novel.  It's handy that much can be found on the internet as I've started to research.  So...I've got homework!

  1. Isn't it fun when you find an author you like.

  2. This looks so interesting. The Divine Comedy is such a huge part of the culture and language of Italy. I've not read it but there's a book called La Bella Lingua (which was great) and she goes into it. Anyway, I should read it! Then read the Dan Brown book!
