Gilbert Keith Chesterton, KC (29 May 1874 - 14 June 1936), was an English writer, poet, philosopher, dramatist, journalist, orator, lay theologian, biographer, and literary and art critic. Chesterton is often referred to as the "prince of paradox". Time magazine has observed of his writing style: "Whenever possible Chesterton made his points with popular sayings, proverbs, allegories-first carefully turning them inside out." Chesterton is well known for his fictional priest-detective Father Brown, and for his reasoned apologetics. Even some of those who disagree with him have recognised the wide appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man.

Well, today I got to peruse C.S. Lewis’ personal copy of G.K. Chesterton’s “Orthodoxy.” In the back is a list of page numbers and quotes that Lewis indexed with his pencil. “The Father is younger than we” is there, my favorite section of this classic book. https://t.co/o8Jw8eltJu

Erin is taking me to Aruba for my 40th next Wednesday. I am debating between reading Chesterton’s Orthodoxy for at least the 10th time or something new. Leaning heavily towards Orthodoxy. Maybe I should mix it up by finding a book about Chesterton’s Orthodoxy. 🤔
