An Interesting Coincidence
At a book sale today, I picked up two books. One is _The Wandering Jew_
by Eugene Sue, a French author (1804 - 1857), whose acquaintance I had not previously made. The other is Umberto Eco's latest novel, _The Prague Cemetery_ , in which, I have just learned, Eugene Sue is a character. Francis A. Miniter |

When you have had time to dip into it, let us know whether you think Eugene Sue was the Dan Brown of his period. Eco seems to draw parallels. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada) |
