The book has been referred to as a metaphysical thriller. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough it deals with anarchists, the novel is not an exploration or rebuttal of anarchist thought; Chesterton's ad hoc construction of \"Philosophical Anarchism\" is distinguished from ordinary anarchism and is referred to several times not so much as a rebellion against government but as a rebellion against God. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe novel has been described as \"one of the hidden hinges of twentieth-century writing, the place where, before our eyes, the nonsense-fantastical tradition of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear pivots and becomes the nightmare-fantastical tradition of Kafka and Borges.\"","brand":"Sheba Blake Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47145841131760,"sku":"2940013897267","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013897267_p0.jpg?v=1763596832","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013897267","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
