rkwdc 's review for:
The Prague Cemetery
by Umberto Eco
A late 19th Century, French-Italian amnesiac with exceptional skill in document forgery and a penchant for the continent's finest dining establishments attempts a Freud-like psychoanalysis upon himself via a chronological journal of his life, beginning with his earliest memories and all in hopes of figuring out who he is. As to be expected with Eco, the tumult of emerging European liberal political philosophy against the machinations of secret societies and their bigoted nationalists conspiracies—based on known historical documents—figures prominently in the gradual reveal of the diarist's identity.
