ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A user manual for small, everyday challenges, according to "the writer who changed culture" -Corriere della Sera

"The most versatile of Italian intellectuals takes the philosophy of a great scholar and combines it with lightness and irony. This unpublished compilation by the author offers the best of his informative style." -La Repubblica

How to Travel with a Salmon is an instruction manual sui generis by an exceptional teacher: Umberto Eco. How to survive bureaucracy, avoid contagious diseases, not use a cell phone, appear on television, even if we are nobody, avoid talking about soccer, eat ice cream, or avoid falling for scams are some of the many situations in our daily lives in which the author guides us with his characteristic sense of humor. Prepared by himself, this selection of articles, which includes those published in the Second Minimal Journal and other unpublished articles and has become a sales phenomenon in Italy, encourages us to become aware that life is in the details, random encounters, and minor problems, and not in dialectical dilemmas or the great questions about existence that occupy a tiny portion of our time.
