Frankenstein and "Foucault's Pendulum"
And something has just reminded me that I still have a copy of the original "Frankenstein" to read. I downloaded it from Project Gutenberg a little while ago. I have to admit, I found reading the text a little hard to read, so I converted it to a pdf (by way of LaTeX) but then I got diverted onto other things. I think I will have to finish off reading "Foucault's Pendulum" first (even though I started F first). I've just conjured up the image of Mary Shelley and Umberto Eco fighting over whose book I should read first. I'm obviously either hallucinating or getting delusions of grandeur (if they aren't the same thing)!
