It overtakes Pennac and Ammaniti, leaving behind Prince Harry and Coelho: long awaited and immediately a bestseller, the comic version signed by Milo Manara of Umberto Eco’s ‘The Name of the Rose’ not only conquers first place in the weekly ranking of sales of comics elaborated by GFK and published by Tuttolibri, but makes its way into the overall top ten, confirming the great attention not only from fans.

In a few days, the first volume of the graphic novel, published by Oblomov editions, has already been reprinted, thanks to the appeal of two masters such as Manara and Eco. Moreover, it is a single book that puts on paper three distinct graphic styles that intersect in pursuit of visual perfection. Each narrates an aspect of Eco’s book: the wonderful and surreal sculptures, reliefs of the portals and marginalia that accompany the illuminated books in the library; Adso’s Bildungsroman, with the discovery of sensuality and the Woman; the historical story of the Dolciniani, whose themes of poverty of the least, non-homogenization, persecuted diversity and dissent are crucial even today.
