Yes! I'm excited.
Very excited to read. I read "Foucault's Pendulum" years ago, but it was a very dense read. Took more than one try!
I've started reading, and I'll warn you that there are some lengthy, dense passages that can be a tad overwhelming, especially a couple places near the beginning. But a lot of the stuff that seems confusing begins making more and more sense, and when you get into the mindset that this is the narrative of a Medieval monk, it helps the narrative along. The mystery element is superb! I hope you enjoy it.
