Born a simple peasant in northern Italy, Baudolino, a young man with a gift for languages and a talent for lying, narrates the story of his life, from his meeting with and adoption by Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, his education in Paris, his and his companions' search for the legendary priest-king Prester John, and his arrival in Constantinople during the turmoil of the Fourth Crusade.
Review:
"[E]rudite and intermittently sluggish....[A]ction is kept to a minimum while Eco permits his characters to engage in lengthy philosophical conversations...."
Kirkus, 08/01/2002
Review:"[Eco] can't draw characters to save his life: what he gives us are flat cartoon figures spouting ideas. Theological digressions are everywhere. There's no real plot. The successive invasion of Italy confuse. No matter. Thanks in part to the unobtrusive skill of Eco's regular translator, William Weaver, BAUDOLINO, with its richly variegated haul of medieval treasures, remains compulsively readable."
Peter Green, New York Times Book Review, 11/03/2002
