G. K. Chesterton and C. S. Lewis both believed that their own lives and works were mere flashes in the pan, that they would be forgotten within a generation of their deaths and that their achievement would be a largely insignificant footnote in the annals of literary history. In this, as in so little else, both men were wrong. It is certainly the case that more people read the works of Lewis today than ever did so during the writer’s own lifetime and I suspect that the same may now be true of Chesterton also. The latest evidence of the inexorable conquest of the world by the burgeoning Chesterton and Lewis industry is the publication of two of GKC’s books, and one of Lewis’s, by an Italian publisher. The books in question are Chesterton’s distributist classics, The Outline of Sanity and What’s Wrong with the World, and Lewis’ The Weight of Glory.
