I think it's only fair that Umberto Eco, Italian author of 'Name of the Rose' and 'The Island of the Day Before' also gets his own thread as well, since his recent death being so near to Harper Lee's passing. Rest in peace Umberto Eco. Too many good authors are dying recently.
Oh dear, I'm sorry about that. Still, Umberto Eco is good enough to have two threads dedicated to him I suppose.
