elenchus: A re-read, and it captures both the enthusiasm for the American project, and the wealth of ideas influencing it -- many not what we think they are today, despite the familiar terms.

elenchus: Familiar with the film and with Eco's fiction, but not with [The Name of the Rose] until this year. As much fun as I'd hoped.

elenchus: Read aloud with my son, but I noticed my partner and daughter also read it before it had to be returned. Charming but not saccharine, earnest but not joyless, and the panels live up to the words.
