Confusion from the Author

Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, a fictional novel, was written in a factual means. Brown took controversial topics like religion and myth and created a literary masterpiece. The author used actual organizations, places, and even some actual names. He also created fictional characters and places, but made no attempt to allow them to appear. Although the facts used in this book was misinterpreted, it played an important role in distracting the reader's attention away from their own thoughts and onto those of the author.
