The Thirty-nine Steps by John Buchan Loyal Books The typical action hero with a stiff upper lip whose actions speak louder than his words, a mysterious American who lives in dread of being killed, an anarchist plot to destabilize Greece, a deadly German spy network, a notebook entirely written in code, and all this set in the weeks preceding the outbreak of World War I.

Its purpose was to ridicule what its participants considered to be the meaninglessness of the modern world. In addition to being anti-war, dada was also anti-bourgeois and anarchistic in nature.(summary from Wikipedia) The Lone Avenger – Forgotten Australia The Lone Avenger – Forgotten Australia Take a deep dive into the dark and mysterious past of the land Down Under.
