Hm, tak tohle ne. Film mám rád, ale knihu jsem dočíst nedokázal. Ta spousta keců okolo byla prostě k zbláznění nezáživná.
Onestamente non sono riuscito a capire perché mai tutta quella gente l'abbia comprato (letto non ci giurerei :-) ).
Detto questo, io l'ho trovato favoloso, perché me lo sono letto a vari livelli contemporaneamente... e mi sono divertito col finto latino di Adso.
