«La misteriosa llama de la reina Loana» is the illustrated novel by Umberto Eco, published by Debolsillo in paperback (512 pages, in Spanish).
Giambattista Bodoni, Yambo, wakes up after an accident with no personal memories: he does not recognise his wife or his children. In the family home in Solara, his wife encourages him to go through the attic, full of books, comics, records and posters from his childhood; these objects become clues to reconstruct who he is and to evoke the popular culture of the twentieth century.
This edition belongs to the Best Seller collection from Debolsillo. The book was originally published in Italian in 2004 under the title «La misteriosa fiamma della regina Loana».
For readers of literary fiction and fans of Umberto Eco interested in memory, identity and the cultural imagination of the twentieth century.
Umberto Eco was an Italian medievalist, philosopher, semiotician, novelist, cultural critic, and political and social commentator. In English, he is best known for his popular 1980 novel The Name of the Rose, a historical mystery combining semiotics in fiction with biblical analysis, medieval studies and literary theory, as well as Foucault's Pendulum, his 1988 novel which touches on the history of occultism and its contemporary interpretation through the new age movement.
