Om forfatteren
Gilbert Keith Chesterton was born in London, England, in 1874. He began his education at St Paul's School, and later went on to study art at the Slade School, and literature at University College in London. Chesterton wrote a great deal of poetry, as well as works of social and literary criticism. vis mere Among his most notable books are The Man Who Was Thursday, a metaphysical thriller, and The Everlasting Man, a history of humankind's spiritual progress. After Chesterton converted to Catholicism in 1922, he wrote mainly on religious topics. Chesterton is most known for creating the famous priest-detective character Father Brown, who first appeared in "The Innocence of Father Brown." Chesterton died in 1936 at the age of 62.

- G K Chesterton has been described as one of the most unjustly neglected writers of our time. Born in 1874 -when Kensington still formed part of Middlesex-, he became a journalist and later began writing books and pamphlets. His work includes novels, literary and social criticism, political papers and spiritual essays in a style characterised by enormous wit, paradox, humility and wonder. He converted to Catholicism in 1922 and he explores the nature of spirituality in many of his books and essays, including the mighty Orthodoxy.Chesterton created the fictional priest-detective Father Brown, and wrote on apologetics. Even some of those who disagree with him have recognised the wide appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton routinely referred to himself as an "orthodox" Christian, and came to identify this position more and more with Catholicism, eventually converting to Catholicism from High Church Anglicanism. Biographers have identified him as a successor to such Victorian authors as Matthew Arnold, Thomas Carlyle, Cardinal John Henry Newman, and John Ruskin. On his contributions, T. S. Eliot wrote,
He was importantly and consistently on the side of the angels. Behind the Johnsonian fancy-dress, so reassuring to the British public, he concealed the most serious and revolutionary designs—concealing them by exposure ... Chesterton's social and economic ideas...were fundamentally Christian and Catholic. He did more, I think, than any man of his time—and was able to do more than anyone else, because of his particular background, development and abilities as a public performer—to maintain the existence of the important minority in the modern world. He leaves behind a permanent claim upon our loyalty, to see that the work that he did in his time is continued in ours.

Gabriel Syme snakker med den anarkistiske digter Lucian Gregory og dennes søster Rosamund Gregory. Lucian udtrykker anarkistiske ideer, men Gabriel driller ham med at han ikke tager det alvorligt. Lucian får Gabriel til at sværge ikke at ville røbe noget for politiet og tager ham til gengæld med til et møde i anarkisternes inderkreds, som Lucian tilhører. Gabriel får til gengæld Lucian til at sværge ikke at røbe noget til anarkisterne og afslører derefter at han er agent for Scotland Yard.
De overholder begge tavshedsløfterne (hvilket ikke virker ret sandsynligt) og meget mod Lucians vilje bliver Gabriel faktisk valgt som ny delegeret i anarkisternes centralkomite (helt usandsynligt) under dæknavnet Torsdag.
Gabriel bliver nu involveret i inderkredsen, hvor det langsomt går op for ham at alle de menige medlemmer Mandag til Lørdag også er politiagenter og endeligt at Søndag også arbejder for det Gode. Det sidste, Gabriel hører, er en fjern røst, der siger "Kan I drikke af det bæger, som jeg drikker af?".
Heldigvis vågner han derefter gradvist af denne mærkelige drøm.
Underlig opstyltet konstruktion, som vistnok kan opfattes som symbolsk og havende noget med kristendom at gøre.
Den kan også læses som noget værre vås på stylter.… (mere)
