Father Brown's Silence

This book contains the world-famous stories of the English writer G.K. Chesterton about Father Brown, an invariably reserved but extremely insightful priest-investigator. His mission is not only to solve crimes, but also to defend the principles of goodness and faith in a world where cunning and injustice reign. The translation by Vladimir Bruy makes these stories even closer to the Belarusian reader.
