"The Name of the Rose" is the first novel of the famous Italian writer, semiologist and researcher of the Middle Ages - Umberto Eco. The books were published in 1980 and are considered classics of postmodernist literature. It is a text that is as grand as a historical novel, as dark as a gothic novel, and as poignant as a detective novel. The action takes place in 1327 in a Benedictine monastery in northwestern Italy. Franciscan monk William of Baskerville and his young companion try to investigate the gruesome murders in the Adso monastery. In the last words, Umberto Eco describes in detail the history of the creation of the book, which is no less interesting than the novel itself. The current special edition is accompanied by unique author's sketches - drawings and inscriptions. From this material, it is clear how the author worked on conveying the character of the characters, depicting the architectural details, how deeply he studied the existence of the Middle Ages and the things that the monks used in the monastery - tools, dishes, kitchen equipment. The cover uses the work of Kote Sulaberidze, which was created for the first edition of "The Name of the Rose".
