Dan Brown

What's The Lost Symbol?
Circumpunct's Symbol's symbol.
Just like Haddock's Eyes...

A pal lent me a nice fresh hardcover copy of Mister Da Vinci Code's latest thriller - a sort of lower-middle-brow Umberto Ecco book. I carefully removed the unspotted dust-jacket to the top of my TV armoire. Then I slipped a brown paper cover on. No, not to hide my shame, but to keep the book spotless and for a place to jot notes. Oh yes, the real symbol is revealed on the last page, and in turn it is a symbol for yet another symbol. Nice. I am going back to reread the White Knight's story in Alice, as referenced in the haiku ^__^

  1. Hi Zoya, nice to meetcha. Yes, I am indeed in the theatre world. I'm a professional dramaturge, essentially an editor of playwright's scripts, as well as a literary advisor for theater companies. I do love amateur drama, but it was my work in the book-publishing industry which put me on this career path "!"
