Tremendous Trifles (Annotated)

G.K. Chesterton was known as, “The Prince of Paradox.” His ability to masterfully capture deep, spiritual truths through very human allegories and reasoning was unparalleled in his day. Tremendous Trifles is a unique volume among Chesterton’s works, as it is a collection of what can only be called very real and human stories. We say real and human, because while Chesterton was undoubtedly a deep philosopher, he was also funny, witty, and a lover of fiction. In this collection of 39 short stories, you will find the full force of his brilliant storytelling abilities encapsulated in an anthology that popped into his curious mind over the years as he reflected on everyday life, and why we do the things we do.
