In quella zona del basso Piemonte dove, anni dopo, sorgerà Alessandria, Baudolino, un piccolo contadino fantasioso e bugiardo, conquista Federico Barbarossa e ne diventa figlio adottivo. Baudolino affabula e inventa ma, quasi per miracolo, tutto quello che immagina, produce Storia. Così, tra le altre cose, costruisce la mitica lettera del Prete Gianni, che prometteva all&'Occidente un regno favoloso, nel lontano Oriente, governato da un re cristiano. Avventura picaresca, romanzo storico in cui emergono in germe i problemi dell&'Italia contemporanea, storia di un delitto impossibile, racconto fantastico, teatro di invenzioni linguistiche esilaranti, questo libro celebra la forza del mito e dell&'utopia.

A self-confessed liar spins a fascinating tale of his life in this “comic and brilliantly baffling” historical novel by the author of The Name of the Rose (The Guardian, UK). Constantinople, 1204. The Byzantine capital is under siege by the knights of the Fourth Crusade. Amid the carnage and confusion, one Baudolino saves a historian and high court official from certain death at the hands of the crusading warriors—and proceeds to regale him with the fantastical story of his life. Born a simple peasant in northern Italy, Baudolino has two major gifts: a talent for learning languages and a skill in telling lies. As a boy he meets a foreign commander who adopts Baudolino and sends him to the university in Paris, where he makes a number of adventurous friends. Spurred on by myths and their own reveries, they decide to go in search of the legendary priest-king Prester John who is said to rule over a vast kingdom in the East. The kingdom they seek is a phantasmagorical land of strange creatures with eyes on their shoulders and mouths on their stomachs; of eunuchs, unicorns, and lovely maidens. With dazzling digressions, outrageous tricks, extraordinary feeling, and vicarious reflections on our postmodern age, Baudolino is Eco the storyteller at his brilliant best.

Charmeur, coquin, roublard et fieffé menteur, Baudolino grandit dans la campagne du bas Piémont pendant que l'empereur Frédéric Barberousse y guerroie, quelque part entre Milan et Pavie. Après une rencontre dont le récit restera un joyau de la fantaisie d'Umberto Eco, Baudolino conquiert la curiosité et l'affection de l'Empereur au point d'en devenir le fils adoptif. Doué pour les langues comme un caméléon pour les couleurs, Baudolino progresse vite, à Paris d'abord où il a connu le double enseignement des Maîtres et de la bamboche la plus insouciante, puis en Italie et en Allemagne où il chevauche, aux côtés de Frédéric dont il est l'homme de confiance et le fin conseiller. Mais toujours il rêve, affabule, et tout ce qu'il imagine finit par produire de l'Histoire. C'est ainsi qu'il échafaude la lettre mythique de ce Prêtre Jean que l'on disait régner dans un lointain et inaccessible Orient, au milieu d'enchantements et de monstres. Poussé par Baudolino, l'Empereur participera à la troisième croisade, prétexte pour aller remettre au Prêtre Jean la plus précieuse des reliques de la chrétienté. Dès lors, l'histoire de Baudolino se déroulera en une succession de récits plus ardents les uns que les autres. Pillage de Constantinople ou mort mystérieuse de Frédéric, défilé d'épisodes terrifiants ou rebondissements ludiques, illuminations amoureuses ou règlements de comptes sanglants : c'est une quête totale où l'éclat de rire le dispute sans cesse à l'émotion, le clin d'œil philosophique ou historique à l'imagination et à l'humour. Dans ce voyage au bout de l'Orient, au bout de la lumière, Umberto Eco retrouve et rassemble les clés magiques du roman : histoire d'amour avec la plus singulière des filles d'Eve jamais rêvée, aventures picaresques au milieu des massacres et des champs de bataille, fresque historique où se reflètent les tensions politiques et guerrières d'aujourd'hui, roman policier d'un crime peut-être parfait, vengeances, théâtre d'inventions linguistiques hilarantes. Baudolino, vingt ans après, est un Nom de la rose laïc où l'on revient délicieusement aux sources pour parcourir à nouveau les fondements du savoir de l'humanité en une joyeuse et paillarde sarabande des corps et des esprits. (J.-N. S.)
