Thursday Next
Thursday Next is the protagonist in the series of novels by Jasper Fforde by the same name. She is an agent with the Swindon SpecOps department 27, Literary Detectives, which means she investigates cases that seem rather bizarre but are perfectly normal in this parallel world like book trafficking, plot line changes etc. The Shakespeare Division (SO-29) broke away from SO-27 to deal solely with Baconian uprisings and Marlowe fans, among other Shakespearean disturbances. Thursday moves between her work in Swindon and the world of fiction, battling the machinations of Goliath Corporation and other evils at every turn.
Thursday has a pet Dodo named Pickwick. In her mid-thirties, she is married to Landen Parke-Laine at some times. Her biographer, Millon de Floss , reveals more about her life at the beginnings of chapters in The Eyre Affair, Lost In A Good Book, The Well Of Lost Plots and Something Rotten .
