Title: Not his best work
Review: I loved the Name of the Rose and Foucault's Pendulum - since then, Eco's storytelling has gone downhill. I really like the concept of Flame. Man loses memory and tries to regain it by returning to his childhood home, rereading formative books from his past. But the payoff here is terrible - the resolution meaningless and uninteresting. OK - I get the point - life is like that - but the book is simply a waste of time.
