Once in a long time a man is fished out when it is just too late, and dies in the boat before you can get him aboard, and—well, I don’t know that I ever told that story since it happened—I knew a fellow who went over, and came back dead. I didn’t see him after he came back; only one of us did, but we all knew he was there.

Perhaps the most light-hearted of all Chesterton's «serious» works, Manalive pits a group of disillusioned young people against Mr. Innocent Smith, a bubbly, high-spirited gentleman who literally falls into their midst. Accused of murder and denounced for repeatedly marrying his wife and attempting to live in various houses (all of which turn out to be his own), Smith prompts his newfound acquaintances to recognize an important idea: that life is worth living.
