Utopia of Usurers and Other Essays
By G. K. Chesterton
Length3h 27m
About this audiobook
Thought-provoking political and social commentaries. It's hard to believe Chesterton's essays are nearly a century old; they are hugely applicable to the current cultural problem of equating financial success with virtue, and the problem of media bias (in many directions). (Goodreads)
