Novels by G.K. Chesterton<br />
Manalive EA<br />
This classic novel tells the rollicking tale of Innocent<br />
Smith, a man who may be crazy—or possibly the<br />
most sane man of all. In this delightfully strange<br />
mystery, Chesterton demonstrates why life is worth<br />
living, and that sometimes we need a little madness<br />
just to know we are alive.<br />

fieldwork in a small New Mexican town. In order<br />
to study the religious practices of the Penitentes,<br />
a brotherhood of local men who engage in severe,<br />

remorse that he begins to experience.<br />

Ida Elisabeth — Sigrid Undset EA<br />
In this compelling drama about fidelity, sorrow<br />
and forgiveness, Nobel Prize-winning author Sigrid<br />
Undset tells the story of Ida Elisabeth. Unlike<br />
Undset’s famous historical novels, which are set in<br />
medieval Norway, this story opens in 1930. Undset<br />
poignantly illustrates how poor choices affect the<br />
course of a person’s life and how the suffering<br />
endured because of grievous mistakes can become<br />
the means by which a love is purified.<br />
