Tremendous Trifles
(eBook)
Description
An entertaining collection drawn from G. K. Chesterton's early years as a newspaper columnist. This compilation of "fleeting sketches," written by G. K. Chesterton while he was a columnist for the Daily News, contains the humor, foresight, and intellectual curiosity that quickly made the young writer a household name throughout London. A tribute to the playfulness of Chesterton's spirit, Tremendous Trifles contains such gems as "An Accident," in which the author crashes an omnibus into a hansom cab, and "The Advantages of Having One Leg," a charmingly thorough investigation of optimism and pessimism. Fans of Chesterton's most famous works - from the Father Brown Stories to Heretics and Orthodoxy - will delight in the cleverness and invigorating wit of Tremendous Trifles.
