At times in his life, Tom Harris is a dull schoolboy, an apprentice barber, a delinquent husband, an old man with a monkey who drinks at the Green Man Pub, "il professore Harris" at the University of Genoa, and possibly a murderer. But the question of who the elusive Tom Harris really is, and what crimes he has really committed, obsesses the narrator of this novel. Tom Harris can perhaps be described as a sort of philosophical detective story, ingeniously plotted and wittily told with a stylistic virtuosity on par with the most playful works of Raymond Queneau.
When an unknown black poodle explodes in philosophy professor Timothy Brown's back yard - paralysing the professor and killing his guest - the mystery of the sardine begins. Its solution will now involve such unwitting detectives as a 12-year-old mathematician, a palmist named Miss Prentice, and a bureaucrat dubbed the Minister of Imponderabilia.
