Author Bio
Umberto Eco
Eco was educated at the University of Turin, where he wrote his thesis on Thomas Aquinas. He is both a best-selling novelist and a widely respected semiotician. His acclaimed (and best-selling) novel THE NAME OF THE ROSE contains playful semiotic elements; he says he began writing it because he "felt like poisoning a monk." It was made into a well-received movie in 1986. Eco has also been cultural editor for an Italian media magazine and a lecturer at various universities in Europe and America.
Praise
Kirkus Reviews
"It's an energetic rendition that invites the audience to meet again the mischievous puppet with all his foibles, setting the stage for an Oz-like ending that reaffirms the power of good." 08/15/1996
