«El candor del padre Brown» is the collection of detective stories by G. K. Chesterton, published by El País in paperback (268 pages, in Spanish).
El candor del padre Brown brings together detective stories featuring Father Brown, a modest-looking Catholic priest who confronts crimes and mysteries relying on his knowledge of human nature. His investigations, far removed from the methods of police and detectives, combine logic, paradox, and a keen eye for the dark side of human beings.
Volume 16 of El País's Serie Negra collection and the first installment of the Father Brown series, originally published in 1911.
For readers interested in the classic detective genre and in detective characters far from the usual archetypes.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton was an English Christian apologist writer. Chesterton's wit, paradoxical style, and defence of tradition made him a dominant figure in early 20th-century literature.
