The author's real name was Brian O'Nolan, but who cares? The important thing is that he wrote The Third Policeman, a brilliant and hilarious book full of pseudo-scientific genius (or is it the real thing, like quantum mechanics?)

Also wrote as Myles na gCopaleen. The Catechism of Cliche from the Best of Myles is one of my favourite things.
