درباره نویسنده
Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936) was an eminent English critic, novelist, and poet, revered for his paradoxical wit and his astute social critiques. Graduating from St. Paul's School and later attending the Slade School of Art, Chesterton did not follow a singular academic path but flourished as a freelance journalist and author. His vast literary corpus encompasses a myriad of subjects including theology, philosophy, history, and detective fiction, the latter epitomized by his much-loved character Father Brown. 'Tales of the Long Bow' (1925) is one of his less known but nonetheless intriguing works, a collection of satirical and unusual stories that humorously yet incisively challenge the reader's preconceptions. With a writing style characterized by a unique blend of humor, literary flair, and an inclination for thought-provoking paradoxes, Chesterton's work remains enduringly influential. Esteemed for his contribution to the detective genre and recognized as a prophetic social commentator, Chesterton's legacy transcends his time. In addition to 'Tales of the Long Bow', his notable works include 'The Man Who Was Thursday', 'Orthodoxy', and 'The Everlasting Man,' which have cemented his reputation as a giant of early 20th-century literature (Ker, 1990; Pearce, 1996).
