I have just started reading "Tremendous Trifles" and I am enjoying it thoroughly.

Now, I am sharpened to one painful point and have the shelf of books to prove it.

We have been having ...Just printed the whole thing. <BR/><BR/>We have been having long discussions on Chesterton lately. My son and I both ended up reading The Innocence of Father Brown at the same time, quite unexpectedly. We were both amazed at the fodder for discussion coming out of a mystery series. I felt better that all my light reading wasn't too light. <BR/><BR/>Father Brown is certainly no fan of the Calvinist. The Calvinist will most certainly be the murderer in Father Brown. I kind of get a kick out of it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02413838626377092356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123697.post-1728043506116421082007-02-20T14:42:00.000-06:002007-02-20T14:42:00.000-06:00Sometimes I describe myself as a Monday-Friday Cat...Sometimes I describe myself as a Monday-Friday Catholic. Along with Chesterton and Belloc, you then have Christopher Dawson, Graham Green, Evelyn Waugh, a whole host of poets, all of Medieval literature, a cadre of great political thinkers, and to top it all off--Flannery O'Connor. Thanks for alerting me to my then dangerous Chesterton-deficiency disorder some years back. I am much healthier in mind and soul now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151496978820396884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123697.post-30566785116921944102007-02-20T12:25:00.000-06:002007-02-20T12:25:00.000-06:00And, I too, may have been introduced to Chesterton...And, I too, may have been introduced to Chesterton via Grant, or North, or CS Lewis.
