Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. I suspected that the law contained its fair share of oddities that may be of interest to judges, lawyers, and lay readers alike. What I did not anticipate was that it would prove to be an almost inexhaustible mine of creativity by judges, humour, sarcasm, and, at times, the bizarre alongside the sublime. Every time I thought the record of absurdity on a particular theme to be complete, another case emerged to remind me that imagination is not confined to poets and criminals. What follows in this book is an exploration of judges who listened to voices only they could hear, lawyers who mistook creativity or, at times, indiscretion for competence, and judgments that might easily pass for works of surrealist literature.
