Book of the Day, Signor Dante, Mr Brown

Today’s literary birthday honoree, Vasari, looms large in Henry’s Book of the Day:

Brown, Dan, Inferno (Doubleday, 1st ed. 1st printing, 2013). ISBN 978-0-385-53785-8. The third of Brown’s Robert Langdon thrillers, this time set in Florence, the story driven by references to Dante’s Inferno. The Duomo, adorned by Vasari paintings, is on the cover, his churches and other paintings recur in the plot of this best-seller, and his famous Vasari Corridor looms large in getting from one place to another not killed by bad guys. Hardcover, unclipped dust jacket, fine condition. HBB price: $100.
