About this listen
Diminutive, bespectacled, and endearing, Father Brown only appears unworldly. But the cherubic parish priest is privy to the inner workings of the most surprising of sinners. And as an amateur sleuth, he intuits motives for Essex's unsolvable crimes.
One of the most beloved characters in 20th-century detective fiction, the kindly cleric leverages his unrivaled insights into human nature to decipher 12 ingenious mysteries from the witty and clever mind of G. K. Chesterton.
Revised edition: Previously published as The Innocence of Father Brown, this edition of The Innocence of Father Brown (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

“At least a dozen audiobook versions already exist of this first collection of G.K. Chesterton's Father Brown stories, but this new version for AmazonClassics has much to commend it. Rory Barnett—also the narrator for Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday—captures much of the distinctive tone and spirit of these stories and their beloved author.… The voice is assured and reassuring, and these 12 stories are, as ever, satisfyingly artful and ingenious.”—AudioFile Magazine
