Gilbert K. Chesterton is popularly known as the “Prince of Paradox” for His work “The Man Who Knew Too Much” is a notable exception showcasing his theological genre of nonfiction with ample amount of wit, comedy, and wisdom with commendable timing. Chesterton championed the art of referencing popular sayings, proverbs, and culturally significant allegories ironically to bring out a never foreseen perspective. His work is a clear depiction of his paradoxical views and beliefs of the human spirit. The Man Who Knew Too Much is a classic collection of short stories that revolve around Horne Fisher, an English Detective and a Gentleman, who decodes and unravels mysteries.
