Zero Number

Umberto Eco is known to the world not only as a classic of modern literature but also as a serious scholar — semiotician, medievalist, cultural theorist, and mass media theorist. The novel "Zero Number" is built on an academic foundation... — a comprehensive study of the work of the media.
In Milan, a pilot project of a newspaper is launched, which is to become another tool of political influence for the sponsoring media magnate. But the editorial team, composed of chronic failures, is not engaged in work but in myth-making. One of the employees, with a manic obsession, gathers evidence confirming his own version of what happened to Benito Mussolini in 1945 and how the Allied intelligence services managed the political life of Europe after the war. A tense drama of love and death, happiness and fear, reality and fiction unfolds around the investigation.
