As sharp as Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown appears to be a simplistic figure but has an uncanny understanding of human nature. A prolific and gifted writer, Chesterton wrote much more than fiction but many readers value his fiction over his more critical works. In this volume, the stories subtly convey his successful association of fiction with social judgment.
