- 小说
The Third Policeman is Flann O'Brien's brilliantly dark comic novel about the nature of time, death, and existence. Told by a narrator who has committed a botched robbery and brutal murder, the novel follows him and his adventures in a two-dimensional police station where, through the theories of the scientist/philosopher de Selby, he is introduced to "Atomic Theory" and its relation to bicycles, the existence of eternity (which turns out to be just down the road), and de Selby's view that the earth is not round but "sausage-shaped." With the help of his newly found soul named "Joe," he grapples with the riddles and contradictions that three eccentric policeman present to him.
The last of O'Brien's novels to be published, The Third Policeman joins O'Brien's other fiction (At Swim-Two-Birds, The Poor Mouth, The Hard Life, The Best of Myles, and The Dalkey Archive) to ensure his place, along with James Joyce and Samuel Beckett, as one of Ireland's great comic geniuses.

"A most sardonic novel about life after death with the dead man telling the comic and terrifying story . . . a strange, original comic genius." --New York Times
"As with Scott Fitzgerald, there is a brilliant ease in his prose, a poignant grace glimmering off every page." --John Updike
"Frenetic, dazzling, unconscionably funny . . . sparkles with wit, elegance, and eruditon (authentic and mock) . . . provides delight in profuse measure." --Newsweek

评分“风的长袍”“原子论”“自行车人”“看不见的匣子”， 将这一切荒诞的理论结合到一起会产生怎样精彩的作品？在爱尔兰作家弗兰·奥布莱恩笔下，这些看似不相连的所谓理论相遇后，竟碰撞出无比璀璨的火花。 这就是他的作品《第三个警察》。本书虽然创作于1939-1940年间，可直到...
