The Innocence of Father Brown

by G. K. Chesterton. The Innocence of Father Brown is a mystery book, (as are the other "Father Brown" books,) and I cannot decide whether I like this or the "Sherlock Holmes" books better. Father Brown is definitely funnier. No priest but he would throw soup at the wall of a restaurant, switch labels on the fruit at the grocery store, and break a restaurant window, so that he would be followed and a criminal, (disguised as a priest, and accompanying him,) would be caught.
