Prag Mezarlığı

19. Paris in the 19th century: Commune Days; dagger blows; murders prepared amid the smoke of absinthe; corpses lying in the sewers; explosions; riots; fake beards; fake notaries; fraudulent wills; satanist organizations; black rituals; Doctor Froïde, who is not very interested in sexuality and is determined not to interfere with his patients' dreams. A hysterical Satanist wandering around Turin, Palermo and Paris; a priest who died twice; Jesuits who plotted against the Masons; Masons who strangle priests with their own entrails; a bow-legged, schitic Garibaldi; the transformation of a forged document into the Protocols of the Sages of Zion...

Umberto Eco presents us with a multi-colored, multi-layered, multi-personalized world in his novel Prague Cemetery, which became a bestseller as soon as it was published in Italy in 2010. This work deals with the emergence of the Protocols of the Sages of Zion, which allegedly constituted the justification for Hitler's Jewish genocide. He novelizes the history of the protocols, which was created by combining many sources, from popular adventure novels of the period to newspaper articles, in a style appropriate to the serialized novels of that period, and of course, as always, by using his extensive knowledge of history, literature and popular culture. Moreover, with appropriate pictures selected from the sources of the period. A complete carnival awaits the readers!
