Now a repeat bargain, again in the US only, and probably short-lived this time, too. It turns out that some Mariner Books are couponable/VIP-eligible in the US at Kobo as well, though this should also otherwise be the same price at all the other US retailers. I've started reading my copy of this bought some time ago previously, and it's delightfully entertaining.

How to Travel with a Salmon & Other Essays by the late novelist and semiotician Umberto Eco ( Wikipedia).
A cosmopolitan curmudgeon the Los Angeles Times called “the Andy Rooney of academia”—known for both nonfiction and novels that have become blockbuster New York Times bestsellers—Umberto Eco takes readers on “a delightful romp through the absurdities of modern life” (Publishers Weekly) as he journeys around the world and into his own wildly adventurous mind. |
