I loved the book from the beginning and enjoyed every page. It was quite funny and full of humor, plus I liked the poetic descriptions. The ending was a little strange and at first I struggled to understand, but once I meditated, I could understand the deeper meaning inherent in this book.
Interestingly weird, and weirdly entertaining, this book could well have been painted by Dali himself. An anomaly among his equals, G. K. Chesterton sought the truth in a time when the truth was a mostly contested topic. A truly courageous man.

I didn't really like it. Apart from the very first revelation, I guessed every single one of them from the very first clue, which did not make me feel like Hercule Poirot but instead made me feel cheated. Basically I thought this was going to be a real thriller, perhaps even a nightmare, but instead it was a a clunky dud.
