by Gilbert K. Chesterton

This collection of newspaper columns, written by G.K. Chesterton for *The New Witness* in 1921, showcases his characteristic wit and incisive observations on the social and political landscape of the time. Chesterton, known for his conservative and traditionalist viewpoints, engages with a range of topics, from the rise of modernism and the changing nature of society to the political and religious issues of the day. His writing style, infused with humor and a sense of the absurd, makes for a thought-provoking and engaging read, even for a modern audience.
