的封面 G K Chesterton: Napoleon of Notting Hill (ePUB)

London, 1984. England has given up on democracy and selects its rulers by lottery. This time it is the turn of clerk Auberon Quin, a prankster who decrees that each borough of London become an independent mediaeval state, complete with costumes and coats of arms. The citizens bear his joke with varying levels of patience until Adam Wayne, the intractable Provost of Notting Hill, sword in hand, takes the game far too seriously.First published in 1904, G. K. Chesterton’s deliriously eccentric debut novel is a wild, topsy-turvy satire on a land ruled by fools.
