Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Read classic chapters xieanming literature：The Leavenworth Case By: Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935)A Doll's House By: Henrik IbsenPenguin Island By: Anatole France (1844-1924)The Essays of Francis Bacon By: Francis Bacon (1561-1626)Othello By: William Shakespeare (1564-1616)Love-Songs of Childhood By: Eugene Field (1850-1895)The Devil's Dictionary By: Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?)Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1896 to 1901 By: Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942)Three Ghost Stories The Time Traders By: Andre Norton (1912-2005)A Child's History of England By: Charles Dickens (1812-1870)The Man of Property By: John Galsworthy (1867-1933)Letters of Two Brides By: Honore de Balzac The History of the Plague in London By: Daniel Defoe (1659/1661-1731)Carmilla By: Joseph Sheridan LeFanu (1814-1873)Main Street By: Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951)Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts By: Frank R.
