G. K. Chesterton: The Innocence of Father Brown, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

G. K. Chesterton's The Innocence of Father Brown (1911) is a collection of twelve detective stories introducing Father Brown, a humble, unassuming Catholic priest with a keen understanding of human nature. Unlike typical detectives who rely on physical clues, Father Brown solves crimes by insight into motives, sin, and psychology. Throughout the stories, he encounters thieves, murderers, and master criminals-including the charismatic criminal Flambeau-whom he eventually reforms. The tales mix mystery, humor, and moral reflection, showcasing Chesterton's belief that true detection comes from empathy and moral insight rather than logic alone.
