Publisher Description

The title of Chesteron’s 1910 collection of essays was inspired by a title given to him two years earlier by The Times newspaper, which had asked a number of authors to write on the topic: “What’s wrong with the world?”. In this collection he gives a fuller treatment of the question, with his characteristic conservative wit.

Prophetic and profound

Chesterton embodies and proves the very Chestertonian truth that looking backwards provides the clearest perspective for looking forwards, and he does so with his hallmark style and prescience. My e-highlighter ran out of ink.
