inside the third policeman's dressing room

Since word leaked that Flann O'Brien's novel The Third Policeman will be guest-starring in tonight's episode of Lost, the book has sold five years' worth of copies and cracked the Amazon Top 100.

Attention, everyone: on next week's Lost, the castaways will discover the hatch is actually insulated with pages from a dissertation by a charming young woman living in Los Angeles, and her unpublished novel will hold the key to their escape from the island.
