Action of novel the "Prague cemetery" is opened out almost wholly in France, but the consequences of this intrigue tragic will stagger the entire world then. In the center of events Russia will appear soon enough, where in 1905 a famous literary imitation was first printed "Protocols of the Zion sages". It is documentarily told in a novel, whose efforts this imitation was created. A protagonist is very nasty, and all, that takes place with him, and awfully, and interestingly. An author, building a plot in a spirit Alexander Дюма, drags a catching breath reader on fetid parisian foul places and on gangster dens, recruits a hero in a гарибальдийское army, compels him to spy on all secret services and world counter-intelligences, including on Russian охранку, to tame hysterics from the clinic of doctor Шарко, to drink beer with Зигмундом by Freud, форсить alongside with Freedom on barricades and even to participate in satanic mass. At the same time, as usual, Умберто Эко gives out to the reader in the shell of adventure novel enormous charge of knowledge and ideas.
