Status Updates From Foucault’s Pendulum

I remember buying a mass-market paperback of this at the drugstore in the mid-90s when I was around 13 or 14. I thought the cover looked cool and the title intrigued me (I had recently seen the Foucault Pendulum at the Smithsonian on a family trip to DC). I never got more than 50 pages into it, and reading it now, I’m surprised I got even that far. I’m adoring it this time, but… yeah. It’s dense.

I seriously need to keep an occult encyclopedia nearby while reading. Maybe also an English-French-Portuguese-Italian-Hebrew-Latin Dictionary...
