A WILD, MAD, HILARIOUS AND PROFOUNDLY MOVING TALE . . .
THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY
by G. K. Chesterton
author of the Father Brown stories
However, the reader will soon discover that it is much more than that. Carried along on the boisterous rush of the narrative by Chesterton's wonderful high-spirited style, he will soon see that he is being carried into much deeper waters than he had planned on; and the totally unforeseeable denouement will prove for the modern reader, as it has for thousands of others since 1908 when the book was first published, an inevitable and moving experience, as the investigators finally discover who Sunday is.
