Linked site won't load so here's a vaguely-related book recommendation: Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco. I don't want to spoil it, but it involves a group of writers who try to come up with a single, maximally compelling, conspiracy theory. Reading it sets up a super interesting tension --…
Foucault’s Pendulum by Umberto Eco is a fantastic novel for doing this. You find yourself sucked right into the conspiracy, only for him to then reveal the facts that destroy it. There’s a subplot on how the number of letters…
…Dan Brown - If you liked The Da Vinci Code or Angels & Demons, you'll probably like this one as well. While Dan Brown will probably never write anything that matches the utter genius of Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum, he is entertaining in his own way and worth a read.
Books I've read many, many times and plan to reread again: Umberto Eco's Foucault's pendulum. Homer's Odyssey. Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac. These never gets old :)
"Foucault's Pendulum" by Umberto Eco. There is some hacking, and a strange battle against people wanting to believe their own truth (does that ring a bell?). Extremely contemporaneous, alas...
If you ever read Umberto Eco's novel "Foucault's Pendulum" this is a key plot point. Specifically some shadowy "conspiracy" group was set to meet, but the meeting never happened because some countries had revised their calendar and some hadn't so they missed…
链接的网站打不开，所以我来推荐一本稍微沾点边的书：翁贝托·埃科（Umberto Eco）的《傅科摆》（Foucault's Pendulum）。我就不剧透了，不过内容讲的是一群作家试图编造出一个单一的、极具说服力的阴谋论。读起来会产生一种极其吸引人的张力——……

翁贝托·埃科（Umberto Eco）的《傅科摆》（Foucault’s Pendulum）在这一点上堪称绝妙的小说。你会发现自己不知不觉深陷阴谋之中，接着他又揭示事实将其彻底击碎。里面还有条支线讲的是字母数量……

……丹·布朗——如果你喜欢《达·芬奇密码》或者《天使与魔鬼》，你大概也会喜欢这本。虽然丹·布朗大概永远写不出能媲美翁贝托·埃科《傅科摆》（Foucault's Pendulum）那种绝顶天才的作品，但他以自己的方式提供了娱乐性，值得一读。

我翻来覆去读过很多遍、并且打算继续重温的书：翁贝托·埃科的《傅科摆》、荷马的《奥德赛》、罗斯唐的《大鼻子情圣》。这些书百读不厌 :)

翁贝托·埃科的《傅科摆》（Foucault's Pendulum）。里面有一些黑客操作，以及一场针对那些只想相信自己认定的“真相”的人的诡异较量（是不是听着很耳熟？）。唉，真是有着极强的现实既视感……

如果你读过翁贝托·埃科的小说《傅科摆》（Foucault's Pendulum），就知道这是个关键情节。具体来说就是一个神秘的“阴谋”组织原定要碰头，但碰头从没发生过，因为有些国家改了历法，有些国家没改，所以他们错过了……
