Then imagine a police force where officers are interviewed in a pitch-dark room. Into this extraordinary world comes Gilbert Syme, poet of order and policeman, who is promised an evening of entertainment. The farce which follows has policemen following criminals, criminals following policemen and a chase through London involving hansom cabs and an elephant. The day before he died Chesterton wrote that this book was misunderstood because readers ignored its subtitle: A Nightmare. Which is exactly what it is, albeit a very entertaining and hilarious one\" --Jacket flap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll books at Vastela are pre-owned.
