Présentation The Man Who Was Thursday Format Broché
- Livre Science humaines et sociales, Lettres
Résumé :
G. K. Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday is a wacky, nightmarish, deliriously well-written adventure story for grownups in which nothing is what it seems and everyone wears a mask, whether figurative or literal. It's hard to think of a more thrilling book. -Kate Christensen, TIME Magazine's Summer Reading List 2009. First published in 1908, G. K. Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday has been described as a metaphysical thriller. It is the story of Gabriel Syme, who is recruited by Scotland Yard as part of an anti-anarchist task force. When he meets Lucian Gregory, a poet and member of a secret society of anarchists, he gains access to the underground movement. The group is lead by a central council of seven men, each named for a day of the week. Gabriel convinces the local chapter to elect him to the vacant position of Thursday and he soon discovers that he is not the only one pretending to be something that he is not. What follows is one of the most absurd and clever plots to ever have been written, one in which Chesterton's wonderfully high-spirited prose carries the reader along in a boisterous rush. Arguably the author's finest work, certainly his most popular, The Man Who Was Thursday is a wild, mad, hilarious and profoundly moving tale that ultimately defies classification. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.About the AuthorGilbert Keith Chesterton (29 May 1874 - 14 June 1936) better known as G. K. Chesterton, was an English writer, lay theologian, poet, philosopher, dramatist, journalist, orator, literary and art critic, biographer, and Christian apologist.
Biographie:
G. K. Chesterton, foi um escritor, poeta, dramaturgo, jornalista, palestrante, bi?grafo, e cr?tico de arte ingl?s. Chesterton ? muitas vezes referido como o pr?ncipe do paradoxo.Sobre seu estilo, a revista Time comentou: Sempre que poss?vel Chesterton produz seus pontos com ditos populares, prov?rbios, alegorias - primeiro, cuidadosamente, virando-os de dentro para fora. Chesterton ? bem conhecido por seu personagem de fic??o, o sacerdote-detetive Padre Brown, e por sua apolog?tica. Mesmo seus oponentes reconheceram a import?ncia de textos como Ortodoxia ou O Homem Eterno. Um dos principais admiradores de Chesterton foi o escritor argentino Jorge Lu?s Borges, que viu no ingl?s um escritor na linha de Franz Kafka e Edgar Allan Poe, reconhecendo, contudo, um estilo que deu a Chesterton sua pr?pria originalidade.
