Umberto Eco To Publish New Novel, Numero Zero

Book2Book Tuesday 10 Mar 2015

Umberto Eco, the Italian author of the modern classics The Name of the Rose and Foucault's Pendulum, will publish a new novel in English at the end of this year.
Already out in Italy, where it went to the top of the charts, the translation of Eco's Numero Zero will be released by publisher Harvill Secker on 5 November. The novel links two stories: one about the shooting of Mussolini and his mistress at Lake Como in 1945, and one about a hack writer named Colonna in 1992 Milan.
