This week's competition, in which you have to identify a book from its opening sentence, is from a book with a Swift title that features a quixotic behemoth from New Orleans:
"A Green hunting cap squeezed the top of the fleshy balloon of a head."
The winner receives a £25 Blackwell's voucher and the closing date is July 30.
