    A WILD AND PROFOUNDLY MOVING TALE *** It is very difficult to classify THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY.

On this level, therefore, THE MAN WHO WAS THURSDAY succee...

  • Alarms and Discursions
    G. K. Chesterton / GKChesterton
    Alone at some distance from the wasting walls of a disused abbey I found half sunken in the grass the grey and goggle-eyed visage of one of those graven monsters that made the ornamental water-spouts in the cathedrals of the Middle Ages. It lay there, scoured by ancient rains or striped by recent fungus, but still looking like the head of some huge dragon slain by a primeval he...

    I cannot understand the people who take literature seriously; but I can love them, and I do. Out of my love I warn them to keep clear of this book.

They were written, as a rule, at the last moment; they were handed in the moment before i...

They worshi-pped the sun, not idolat...
