«Candor del Padre Brown» is a collection of mystery stories by G. K. Chesterton, published by Losada in paperback (331 pages, in Spanish).
In these stories, Father Brown, a Catholic priest of ordinary appearance, solves crimes thanks to his insight and his knowledge of the human soul. Each tale combines the detective puzzle with a meditation on faith, guilt and evil, and reminds us that appearances deceive even in the most respectable settings.
First volume of the Father Brown series. Translation by Alfonso Reyes; the original title is The Innocence of Father Brown, published in 1911. Losada edition published in 1995.
Suitable for readers of classic mystery who prefer short stories with a moral and psychological background.
