Chesterton was an English philosopher, apologist for Christianity, author of the Father Brown mystery novels and literary and art critic. He showed an early talent for visual art, but did not finish art school. That was a good move, as he was to develop into a writer of such stature he was cited as an influence by Argentinian great Jorge Luis Borges. As author of as many as 80 books, he was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1935.
