Umberto Eco: La Biblioteca del Mondo plot

Umberto Eco (1932-2016), the world-famous Italian author of novels such as The Name of the Rose and Foucault's Pendulum, left behind an estimated 50,000 books. A true 'library of the world' or, in the words of the writer and thinker himself, 'the memory of humanity'. It is remarkable that the collector Eco made a lot of room for books on mysticism, alchemy and occult subjects. After all, they are also part of that collective memory.
