About This Item
Harper & Row [1986]. Hard Cover. 369 p., index, plates. ââ¬ËDrawing upon recently discovered original sources-- letters, a Sherlock Holmes detective story, and several poems-- Michael Ffinch has taken the traditional view of Chesterton as the ââ¬Ëjolly journalist,ââ¬â¢ the master of pun and paradox, and turned it on its head. He shows that a man who has been generally acknowledged as a major literary figure only came to his perception of truth through a life of spiritual turmoil and intense personal suffering which culminated in his conversion to Roman Catholicism.ââ¬â¢ Dj edges a bit worn; near fine. stock#101647.
