Hi Neil! In an effort to consume Good Omens in as many ways as possible I looked up the gentleman in the book dedication. G.K. Chesterton sounds exactly like someone who’s work I need in my life (and I smiled at the similarities between him and a certain Fiddlers Green) but my library is sorely lacking. My next stop is the local used book store, but if you could recommend a starting place for his nonfiction pieces I would be so appreciative! Thank you. :)

Tremendous Trifles is a good Chesterton essay collection.

The Man Who Was Thursday was somewhere in the back of our heads plotting Good Omens.

“The Old Song” is a poem that Crowley thinks about while he’s trying to leave London.
