I started reading umberto eco's the prague cemetary last week and it's good so far, but also a lot to take in.

There are a lot of religious themes but also conspiracy and very explicit descriptions of hate and prejudice.

It's a historic novel but so much more than this.

Oh, idk where you live maybe he did have it translated somewhere, idk. But i liked the movies based on the series Afdeling Q by Jussi Addler Olsen. Personally considering buying the books myself.
