”Mind at the End of Its Tether” -- Chesterton & Wells, Part 3

This is the third and final (at least for now) episode examining G.K. Chesterton's critique of H.G. Wells' globalist/ materialist/ socialist faith.

 

Specifically, this episode considers Wells' despondency revealed in his last (and likely least known) book, Mind at the End of Its Tether, published just before his death in 1945. 

 

Interestingly, Chesterton predicted this "end of the tether" for Wells as much as 40 years before.
