The Man Who Was Thursday

Meer over het boek

Set in turn-of-the-century London, the story follows poet-turned-detective Gabriel Syme as he infiltrates an anarchist society named after the days of the week. The narrative blends philosophical discourse, surreal allegory, and gothic romance, creating a unique genre-defying experience. Chesterton's work is a madcap adventure that combines elements of a metaphysical thriller and detective farce, promising a wildly entertaining journey through a richly imaginative landscape.
