Sobre este artículo
Orlando, FL: Harcourt. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2004. First American Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0151008124 . Only slight wear to book & DJ ; A bright, solid book, dustjacket in Mylar, unclipped.; 9.10 X 6.10 X 1.30 inches; 352 pages; Translated from the Italian by Martin McLaughlin. "n this collection of essays and addresses delivered over the course of his illustrious career, Umberto Eco seeks "to understand the chemistry of [his] passion" for the word. From musings on Ptolemy and "the force of the false" to reflections on the experimental writing of Borges and Joyce, Eco's luminous intelligence and encyclopedic knowledge are on dazzling display throughout. And when he reveals his own ambitions and superstitions, his authorial anxieties and fears, one feels like a secret sharer in the garden of literature to which he so often alludes.Remarkably accessible and unfailingly stimulating, this collection exhibits the diversity of interests and the depth of knowledge that have made Eco one of the world's leading writers." .

Sobre Ainsworth Books
Ainsworth Books was for many years a bricks and mortar store in Vancouver, BC. When we acquired the store, we moved to a location in Delta. After three years we moved the stock home and started operation as an online, by appointment only operation. I have worked with books my whole adult life and enjoy giving recommendations.
