The Man Who Was ThursdayA Nightmare. E-book. Formato EPUB Gilbert Keith Chesterton   -  Rea Multimedia, 2026  - 

The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare is a 1908 novel by G. K. Chesterton. The book has been described as a metaphysical thriller.Chesterton prefixed the novel with a poem written to Edmund Clerihew Bentley, revisiting the pair's early history and the challenges presented to their early faith by the times.In Victorian-era London, Gabriel Syme is recruited at Scotland Yard to a secret anti-anarchist police corps. Lucian Gregory, an anarchistic poet, lives in the suburb of Saffron Park. Syme meets him at a party and they debate the meaning of poetry. Gregory argues that revolt is the basis of poetry. Syme demurs, insisting the essence of poetry is not revolution but law. He antagonises Gregory by asserting that the most poetical of human creations is the timetable for the London Underground. He suggests Gregory is not really serious about anarchism, which so irritates Gregory that he takes Syme to an underground anarchist meeting place, under oath not to disclose its existence to anyone, revealing his public endorsement of anarchy is a ruse to make him seem harmless, when in fact he is an influential member of the local chapter of the European anarchist council.The central council consists of seven men, each using the name of a day of the week as a cover; the position of Thursday is about to be elected by Gregory's local chapter.

C’est au bord de l’étang que Frisia, une petite fille aux cheveux roux et aux yeux bleus, rencontre la « Jolie Renarde des Bois ». Elles se parlent et deviennent à l’instant de très bonnes amies. L’enfant voudrait être astucieuse comme la renarde et la renarde aussi coquette que la petite. Tout à coup apparaît la Fée Sans-souci qui leur propose de les transformer en une seule créature magique qui sera à la fois renarde et enfant. Les deux petites acceptent mais après l’enchantement, la fée disparaît sans laisser à la nouvelle créature, l'Enfant-Renard, la formule pour se transformer à son gré. Après de nombreuses péripéties, Frisia doit quitter sa belle vallée pour s’installer chez sa grand-mère à L’Aquila, la ville où il y a un mystère à dévoiler. C’est pourquoi, accompagnée de ses amis inséparables, l’Enfant-Renard devra surmonter de nombreux obstacles et faire face à d’étonnantes rencontres telles que des sorcières, des fantômes, des ogres, des mammouths et des dinosaures… Un nouveau personnage de la littérature: l'Enfant-Renard.
