Opis

THIS IS NOT A HASTILY ASSEMBLED SCAN OR "FACSIMILE EDITION" OF THIS WORK. EVERY LETTER AND WORD OF THE ORIGINAL HAS BEEN RESET AND CAREFULLY PROOFED FOR ACCURACY. "A powerful picture of the loneliness and bewilderment which each of us encounters in his single-handed struggle with the universe." -- C. S. Lewis Synopsis: THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY cannot be classified. It is a detective story, a tale of espionage, a story of master criminals pursued by courageous and brilliant policemen. It is full of mystery and the fog shrouded gas-lit streets of London at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. It is about terrorism and anarchy, the throwing of bombs into innocent crowds. It is about political assassinations and the end of the world. It is about disguises and identity theft. It is a supernatural thriller of the first order. Yet this still does not reveal the secret of THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY. From the celebrated author of the FATHER BROWN mysteries and ORTHODOXY, G. K. Chesterton takes the reader on a journey as humorous and unexpected today as it was in 1908.
