The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco

The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco

In 1327 a Franciscan friar named William of Baskerville arrives at an Italian abbey to attend a theological debate and finds a monk dead at the bottom of a cliff. Over seven days, six more die.

Eco was a professor of semiotics, and the novel is at once a genuinely fair detective story, a theological argument about whether Christ laughed, and a portrait of a fourteenth century convulsed by heresy and inquisition. At the centre is a labyrinth library holding a book that someone is killing to keep unread.

One of the best-selling literary novels ever published, and far more entertaining than its reputation.
