I am adoring that cover. And Eco is almost always wonderful.
I'd bet on a late 2011/early 2012 release, since this only came out in Italian last month, I believe.

From what I can figure out by glancing at the Italian cover description, it sounds awesome.

That is what drew me in as well, besides it being a novel by Eco

But that's not to say there won't be more difficult Italian words he doesn't know.

Eco in Italian IS very difficult if you're not fluent.

Let me rephrase: I'm going to wait for a hardcover version in Italian or English.

It sounds like the French, Spanish and Italians don't read but the Germans do.

Yes, I don't think percentages are relevant. Gross statistics would matter much more.
