This is a book which seems to polarize its readers. 88 1-star reviews compared with 15 5-star reviews! But, from the sound of it, the 1-star reviews are from people complaining that it's a book which makes them think (as "The Name of the Rose" also does).

I'll be honest: I bought/read it on a whim quite a while back and have never bothered to read any reviews of it. This is the first I've seen the general "opinion" of readers concerning this book, and I had no idea it was rated so low (162 5-stars to 392 1-stars in the US). Perhaps I just have bad taste in books.
