About the book: 2012 / The action of the novel "Prague Cemetery" takes place almost entirely in France, but the consequences of this intrigue will tragically strike the whole world. Russia will soon be at the center of events, where the famous literary forgery “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” was first published in 1905. The novel documents whose efforts this fake was created. The main character is very disgusting, and everything that happens to him is both terrible and interesting. The author, constructing a plot in the spirit of Alexandre Dumas, drags the breathless reader through the fetid Parisian sewers and gangster dens, recruits the hero into the Garibaldian army, forces him to spy on all the intelligence and counterintelligence agencies of the world, including the Russian secret police, to tame the hysterical women from the clinic Dr. Charcot, drinking beer with Sigmund Freud, marching side by side with Freedom on the barricades and even participating in a satanic mass. At the same time, as always, Umberto Eco gives the reader in the shell of an adventure novel a huge charge of knowledge and ideas.
