Most interesting and thought provoking. I like his comparison to other writers and also his description of Dickens's public behavior and dress was entertaining. Small problem, if you are not familiar with a lot of Dickens, he talks about characters but doesn't identify the novel they are in. Well read, thanks to volunteers.
Very good.

I rate this book with 3 stars comparing it with his best work, Orthodoxy, and the other best books in the world. It was very, very good. I loved it, and I've never even read a Charles Dickens book before. So many good philosophy tidbits, as always coming from Chesterton.
