Chesterton, stood and cheered his mastery of the English language as unique, and unforgettable characters, and much of its deep social conscience. However, it also received criticism of his best readers, George Henry Lewes, Henry James and Virginia Woolf among them-which blamed certain defects to his works, as effusive sentimentality, unrealistic and grotesque characters events. His novels and short stories enjoyed great popularity in the writer's life, and still are published continuously.
