Let's face it, when Lost is in the off season life is pretty much bleak and meaningless (except for religion, some family etc.), so to fill the gap, let's read a book that was mentioned in the series!

First up: The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brien.

For its appearance in and relevance to Lost, see the entry in the Lostpedia:

http://www.lostpedia.com/...Policeman.

This will work as follows: read the book and post about it here.

That simple. No big mysteries. This isn't an episode of Lost.

oh. maybe i should have read your words before posting. hmm nevermind about that though!

what kind of name is "flann"? doesn't it sort of frighten you to read things by authors with really weird names??

Shouldn't we read "The First Policeman" first ??? I mean, is that book to be understood without reading the first two at all ?

There were some good posts. Not really a discussion because people were reading at such different paces, but some good points.
