The Name of the Rose is Umberto Eco’s iconic and intellectually rich historical mystery set in a 14th-century Italian monastery. When a series of unexplained deaths begins to plague the abbey, the brilliant Franciscan friar William of Baskerville and his novice Adso investigate a labyrinth of secrets, forbidden books, and theological intrigue.
Blending murder mystery with philosophy, semiotics, and medieval history, this novel is both a gripping whodunit and a profound meditation on knowledge, faith, and power. Challenging yet immensely rewarding, it remains a landmark of modern literature.
