Umberto Eco's world bestseller finally as a graphic novel. Millions of people know The Name of the Rose, the seven days and nights that the Franciscan monk William of Baskerville and his young companion Adson spend on the trail of a mysterious series of murders in a 14th-century Italian abbey. Now Milo Manara, the master of classic cartoons, has transformed the plot and settings into a fabulously sensual world of images: not only the protagonists come to life here, but also the sculptures, the portal reliefs and the wonderful marginalia of the library's illuminated manuscripts.
