The six stories in this book are a delight to read. Chesterton shows great imagination in crafting these tales about a club that is very difficult to join. In order to qualify one must create an original profession and prove oneself able to make a living out of it. As an amateur storyteller myself, I wondered how Chesterton was going to pull off the plot from some very unusual beginnings. Needless to say, the master does it In a very humorous manner.
