Reviews
"Explodes with pyrotechnic inventions, literally as well as figuratively. Hold on till the end." -- New York Times "Like the labyrinthine library at its heart, this brilliant novel has many cunning passages and secret chambers . . . Fascinating . . . ingenious . . . dazzling." -- Newsweek "The Name of the Rose succeeds at being amusing and ambitious at the same time. It can be regarded as a philosophical novel masked as a detective story, or a detective story masked as a historical novel, or even better as a blend of all three. The venture sounds improbable, but Eco carries it out." -- New York Review of Books "A brilliantly conceived adventure into another time, an intelligent and complex novel, a lively and well-plotted mystery." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Whether you're into Sherlock Holmes, Montaillou, Borges, the nouvelle critique, the Rule of St. Benedict, metaphysics, library design, or The Thing from the Crypt, you'll love it. Who can that miss out?" -- Sunday Times (London) "Unfolds in an atmosphere thick with hostility and intrigue . . . Although The Name of the Rose is not a story of semiotics, Eco the novelist shares with Eco the semiotician a feeling for the world as a place rich with possible meanings." -- Christian Science Monitor

Synopsis
It is the year 1327. Franciscans in an Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, but Brother William of Baskerville's investigation is suddenly overshadowed by seven bizarre deaths. Translated by William Weaver. A Helen and Kurt Wolff Book, Umberto Eco's first novel, an international sensation and winner of the Premio Strega and the Prix Médicis Etranger awards., Now available from HarperVia in a deluxe paperback edition featuring never-before-seen illustrations by the author, the beloved internationally bestselling historical mystery about a brilliant monk called upon to solve a series of baffling murders in a fourteenth-century Italian abbey "Explodes with pyrotechnic inventions, literally as well as figuratively. Hold on till the end."--New York Times "Whether you're into Sherlock Holmes, Montaillou, Borges, the nouvelle critique, the Rule of St. Benedict, metaphysics, library design, or The Thing from the Crypt, you'll love it. Who can that miss out?"--Sunday Times (London) Italy, 1347. While Brother William of Baskerville is investigating accusations of heresy at a wealthy abbey, his inquiries are disrupted by a series of bizarre deaths. Turning his practiced detective skills to finding the killer, he relies on logic (Aristotle), theology (Thomas Aquinas), empirical insights (Roger Bacon), and his own wry humor and ferocious curiosity. With the aid of his young apprentice, William scours the abbey, from its stables to the labyrinthine library, piecing together evidence, and deciphering cryptic symbols and coded manuscripts to uncover the truth about this place where "the most interesting things happen at night." First published in 1980, The Name of the Rose became an international sensation, beguiling readers around the world with its mix of history, humor, and intellectual heft. This beautifully designed modern edition, illustrated with exclusive original drawings created by Umberto Eco, will enchant a new generation of readers and entice old fans to fall under its spell once again., Now available from HarperVia in a deluxe paperback edition featuring never-before-seen illustrations by the author, the beloved internationally bestselling historical mystery about a brilliant monk called upon to solve a series of baffling murders in a fourteenth-century Italian abbey "Explodes with pyrotechnic inventions, literally as well as figuratively.

    First off, I really appreciated that the seller shipped this very quickly and it arrived to my address in the span of three days! I also appreciate that the seller sent me an offer for the item, and I was happy to accept it. The item was packaged nicely.

  • Beautiful edition of the book

    I've read The Name of the Rose once before from the library and wanted a personal copy with big margins to take notes in. Came a little worse for wear than what I expected from a "good" condition rating. There was a large tear on the fold of the jacket that needs to be taped. Otherwise, the book itself is in great quality. Exactly what I look for in a used book—obviously not new but readable and special in its own way.

  • If you looking for some surf stories this book an't it.

    Mystery. History,Plots with Subplots, Action, and a little Latin added in for good measure. I assure this is not the types of stories your local parish priest told you about! But its all in good fun, and makes you wonder when extremism clauses. I read this book when it first came out and decided to revisit it again. Wish I knew more about Latin!

  • interesting but tough slog

    what can i say? I'm fascinated w the middle ages and learned a great deal. Well written. Had to have the key to it for the latin translations (lots of latin in the book). Plot complicated, hard to follow. So if u luv that period - read the book. If not, don't bother. by the way norman kantor, one of my favorite medievalists sez rose is one of the most realistic fictional descriptions of the period.

    Dust jacket was torn beyond repair with pieces missing from it. Book itself was in good shape.
