Status Updates From The 7th Function of Language

Okay I need to study now, but wowwww this is another 5 star Binet novel. Sadly his other novels are supposed to be boring historical fiction. HHhH was one of my favs last year.

c’est moi ou ça devient vraiment très, très long et répétitif là ? dommage car la prémisse était hilarante…

May the verb be with you

من اجمل الكتب حبكةً وأسوأها ترجمةً

Mme Lecuyer serait fière de moi...

am i smart enough for this book? so far, unclear

Se me ha desinflado. Ver a los estructuralistas y posmos diciendo posmoderneces de burgués acomodado -dijeran lo que dijesen ellos- tiene menos interés para mí que la muerte de Heydrich en Praga en 1942. Tiene cosas que son canelita -como el doctorando en semiótica que se marca una deducción a lo Holmes en base a signos lingüísticos y culturales- pero no me basta para seguir leyendo.

i love books where the characters are annoying ❤️

het duurde 30 pagina's totdat Bourdieu genoemd werd, welterusten

A period wunza that pairs a 1980 French police detective and a semiotician to investigate the murder (?) of Roland Barthes. Either that sounds like a hoot to you, or the most pretentious nonsense you’ve ever heard.

همه گره‌ها داره باز میشه😌

البته رمان پلیسی لفظ دقیقا صحیحی برای این کتاب نیست.
این رمان بیشتر از اینکه پلیسی باشد، فلسفی است.

چه کتاب عجیب و غریبی!

من اصلا رمان پلیسی دوست ندارم ولی چه خوبه🫢

الترجمة أقل بكثير من المستوى! أراجع الترجمة الإنجليزية والنص الفرنسي أحياناً لأفهم المطلوب.

I DNF this book - very strange but I could have withstood that. It was vulgar & terrible language.

We‘re getting there…. Soon

Finally did something for *this* again… after 2 month🫣

Part V Epilogue was interesting. I take it as an indirect homage to Foucault's Pendulum which is very cool.
Liked the book, this was entertaining.

Very filmy. It's entertaining. Brainy thriller I guess.

Part Three: Loses the plot a bit for me, gets way in over its head. It's still a fun read but it's gone from "wow this could be brilliant" to more "neat idea, got some things to look up" the way Dan Brown's books do for me. It's a good read but the author took much on and not sure it is all being utilised well.

Part Two. Pretty interesting. Hints of The Da Vinci Code, The Name of thecRose, these kind of books - the possibility of a conspiracy around a mysterious missing manuscript that may or may not exist. Umberto Eco's appearance was very nice.

Completed Part 1. Great premise, narrative momentum is spot on, good writing. I am slightly concerned that the author is bringing in too many narrative threads but very intriguing so far.

To much to do, to much prokastination..
