In the novel "The Man Who was Thursday" first published in 1908, writer and clergyman G.K.Chesterton creates a topical monstrosity in which the principal character, Bernard Quatermain, is engaged in tireless efforts to banish the elaborate evil practice of demonology from the planet. He starts with a shockingly desperate move. Evacing the tranquil calm of his cozy study on the banks of the Thames, he stages an intricate intrigue soundly based on searches for the fountainhead of the malefic existence: the dark myth embodied by Bishop Percy. In his effort to unveil the veil of mystification which surrodes the figure of Bishop Percy, Quaterman forms a friendship with one eccentric Professor Challenger and ingeniously slides behind the veil himself by assuming the dearest possession of Percy, the monstrous Thursday. Read or re-read this novel - and you close your eyes completely grounded in the fogginess of scientifically dubious, condescending valuations. Undertake a feat of suspense through the ever changing maze of death and passion. Cheerfully recommend it to frightened book lovers like yourself who seek a mollifying read, if only in order to unwind, and suffer a few hours' well deserved respite from small minds grinning in self importance.
