How to Travel with a Salmon and Other Essays by Umberto Eco

4.0

In stark contrast with his other works (esp. The Name of the Rose and Faucoult's Pendulum), this collection demonstrates Eco's satirical vein, his expansive literary knowledge, as well as some necessary, typical, sarcastic Italian self-deprecation, whilst tugging throughout on our heartstrings in nostalgia of the Mediterranean 80s and 90s.
