Known for his paradoxical style and wit, Chesterton was a multifaceted English writer and philosopher who created the beloved character Father Brown. His works, including Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man, explore themes of faith and reason, showcasing his deep engagement with apologetics. A self-identified "orthodox" Christian, he ultimately converted to Roman Catholicism, reflecting his evolving theological views. Chesterton's ability to turn common sayings inside out and his unique narrative approach have left a lasting impact on literature and thought.
