Flann O'Brien’s most popular and surrealistic novel concerns an imaginary, hellish village police force and a local murder. Weird, satirical, and very funny, its popularity has suddenly increased after the novel was featured in the hit television series Lost. The series’ creators have said that anyone who has read the book will have a lot more ammunition when dissecting plot lines of the show. The Third Policeman comes to life in this new unabridged recording.
