Description
By G. K. Chesterton
‘Heretics’, one of G. K. Chesterton’s first books, is also one of his absolute best. Overflowing with distinctive wit, incisiveness, and splendid gusto, here is Chesterton’s razor-sharp analysis of the fallacies of modern thought as exemplified in the leading writers of the time. Nietzsche, Shaw, Yeats, Kipling, Ibsen, H.G. Wells and others, are all submitted to a ruthless Chestertonian examination. However, true to his character, Chesterton gives the antagonist his due, while allowing the reader to celebrate the real value of his work.
