Recensioner i media

"'Umberto Eco has written a novel - his first - and it has become a literary event'" New York Times Book Review "'A novel of stunning intelligence, linguistic richness, thematic complexity'" Il Giorno "'This novel belongs with Voltaire' philosophical tales - in the entertaining guise of an erudite fiction story, it is also a vibrant plea for freedom, moderation and wisdom'" L'Express
