A novel by Umberto Eco.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Yambo Bodoni has a problem. After suffering a stroke, he lost his episodic memory. Now he can't remember his name, family, or any aspects of his life. Thanks to a lifetime of work as an antiquarian book dealer in Milan, however, he can recall anything he's ever read. In order to rediscover his lost past, Yambo heads to his childhood hometown of Solara. As he pores through old newspapers, comics, and magazines, Yambo - and the reader - get glimpses into the often tragic and bittersweet reality of a boy coming of age in Italy during World War II. |

Amnesiac Hero: Yambo. The novel even starts out with him at the hospital awkwardly trying to figure out his name. |

Aborted Declaration of Love: After nursing his schoolboy crush on Lila for weeks, Yambo finally musters enough nerve to confess everything. He waits for her to come home from school, mentally going over exactly what he's going to say. When Lila arrives, he can barely stutter out a single sentence of small talk before awkwardly leaving. |
