À propos de ce livre

The Second Father Brown Collection includes two collections of short stories featuring Father Brown.

Father Brown is a fictional Roman Catholic priest and amateur detective who is featured in 53 short stories published between 1910 and 1936 written by English novelist G.K. Chesterton. Father Brown solves mysteries and crimes using his intuition and keen understanding of human nature. Chesterton loosely based him on the Rt Rev. Msgr. John O'Connor (1870-1952), a parish priest in Bradford, who was involved in Chesterton's conversion to Catholicism in 1922.

Included in this collection:

1. The Incredulity of Father Brown (1926): The Resurrection of Father Brown / The Arrow of Heaven / The Oracle of the Dog / The Miracle of Moon Crescent / The Curse of the Golden Cross / The Dagger With Wings / The Doom of the Darnaways / The Ghost of Gideon Wise

2. The Secret of Father Brown (1927): The Mirror of the Magistrate / The Man With Two Beards / The Song of the Flying Fish / The Actor and the Alibi / The Vanishing of Vaudrey / The Worst Crime in the World / The Red Moon of Meru / The Chief Mourner of Marne / The Secret of Flambeau
