G.K. Chesterton was one of the most prolific writers of the 20th century, writing across numerous genres. His many newspaper columns, his detective stories, his philosophical analysis, and his theological exposition once made him a household name. Though not as well known today, each generation discovers Chesterton anew, and in doing so, finds that Chesterton's writings, even if it is his fiction, apply in their time as well as in Chesterton's time. Chesterton's 1908 clever classic, "The Man Who Was Thursday: A Nightmare," is as good of an introduction into Chesterton as any.

Autorenporträt
G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was a prolific English writer, philosopher, lay theologian, and literary and art critic. He is best known in mystery circles as the creator of the fictional priest-detective Father Brown and for the metaphysical thriller The Man Who Was Thursday. In 1895, at the age of twenty-one, Chesterton began working for the London publisher George Redway. A year later he moved to another publisher, T. Fisher Unwin, where he undertook his first work in journalism, illustration, and literary criticism. In addition to writing fifty-three Father Brown stories, Chesterton authored articles and books of social criticism, philosophy, theology, economics, literary criticism, biography, and poetry.
