Utopia of Usurers and Other Essays

More about the book

Renowned for his paradoxical style, Chesterton's work often employs proverbs and allegories, turning them on their head to convey deeper truths. He is best known for creating the beloved character Father Brown, a priest-detective, and for his influential writings on apologetics, including Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. A self-identified "orthodox" Christian, Chesterton's journey led him to embrace Catholicism, reflecting his evolving theological perspective and broad appeal, even among critics.
