Known for both his fiction and non-fiction, including classics like Orthodoxy and his popular Father Brown mysteries, G.K. Chesterton is highly regarded as a writer of piercing insight and comic wit. The Napoleon of Notting Hill and The Man Who was Thursday are among his most loved novels. The first tells the story of residents of a London suburb who take up arms and declare their independence from England. The Man Who was Thursday, which became his most well-known novel, details the story of a policeman who becomes unwittingly—and unwillingly—caught up in a resistance group infiltrating a secret organization of anarchists.
