The Complete Father Brown Stories

Shabby and lumbering, with a face like a Norfolk dumpling, Father Brown makes for an improbable super-sleuth. But his innocence is the secret of his success: refusing the scientific method of detection, he adopts instead an approach of simple sympathy, interpreting each crime as a work of art, and each criminal as a man no worse than himself.

Ponoros si greoi, cu o fata ca o galusca Norfolk, Parintele Brown este un improbabil super-detectiv. Dar inocenta sa este secretul succesului sau: refuzand metoda stiintifica de detectare, adopta in schimb o abordare bazata pe simpla compasiune, interpretand fiecare crima ca pe o opera de arta si fiecare criminal ca pe un om nu mai rau decat el insusi.
