Set in 1327, a Franciscan friar, Brother William of Baskerville, arrives at an Italian Benedictine abbey to investigate claims of heresy — only to find himself entangled in a series of gruesome murders. Drawing on the logic of Aristotle and the wit of a medieval Sherlock Holmes, William navigates a labyrinthine library full of dark secrets. Umberto Eco’s internationally acclaimed masterpiece blends murder mystery, medieval theology, and literary philosophy into an unforgettable listen.
