Přiznávám, že moje očekávání po Jménu růže byla asi příliš vysoká, ale tato kniha mě moc nenadchla. Děj byl příliš zdlouhavý, skoro schizofrenní a nějak to nemělo dohru. Co si ale rozhodně cením, je popis Prahy z 10. století - jak byla centrem historie, magie, mýtů, centrem všeho, co se v té době v Evropě dělo.

Více o knize
19th-century Europe—from Turin to Prague to Paris—abounds with the ghastly and the mysterious. Conspiracies rule history. Jesuits plot against Freemasons. Italian republicans strangle priests with their own intestines. French criminals plan bombings by day and celebrate Black Masses at night. Every nation has its own secret service, perpetrating forgeries, plots, and massacres. From the unification of Italy to the Paris Commune to the Dreyfus Affair to The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Europe is in tumult and everyone needs a scapegoat. But what if, behind all of these conspiracies both real and imagined, lay one lone man? What if that evil genius created its most infamous document? Eco takes his readers here on an unforgettable journey through the underbelly of world-shattering events. This is Eco at his most exciting, a book immediately hailed as his masterpiece.
