«El candor del padre Brown» is the collection of twelve detective stories by G. K. Chesterton, published by Planeta in paperback (304 pages, in Spanish).
Father Brown is a Catholic priest of unremarkable appearance who, with his inseparable umbrella, demonstrates an uncommon knowledge of evil and the human condition. The twelve stories in this volume present seemingly indecipherable mysteries, solved by Brown with humour, social criticism and psychological observation.
Volume 36 of Planeta's BestSellers Serie Negra collection (1985). Translation by Alfonso Reyes of the original The Innocence of Father Brown, first title in the Father Brown series.
For fans of classic detective fiction and the short story with a moral background: it is the gateway to the Father Brown saga.
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.
