About this listen

The G.K. Chesterton Fiction Collection brings together thirteen of Chesterton's major novels and short story collections, including the first four volumes of his beloved Father Brown stories. This collection takes you from his first published novel, The Napoleon of Notting Hill (often cited as inspiration for 1984) to stories of his monocled amateur sleuth, Father Brown, and all the way through to his final novel, the high satire The Return of Don Quixote.

The works included within are in order of chronological appearance:

  • The Napoleon of Notting Hill (1904)
  • The Club of Queer Trades (1905)
  • The Man Who Was Thursday (1908)
  • The Ball and the Cross (1909)
  • The Innocence Of Father Brown (1911)
  • Manalive (1912)
  • The Flying Inn (1914)
  • The Wisdom Of Father Brown (1914)
  • The Man Who Knew Too Much: And Other Stories (1922)
  • The Trees of Pride (1922)
  • The Incredulity Of Father Brown (1926)
  • The Return of Don Quixote (1927)
  • The Secret Of Father Brown (1927)
  • The Poet and the Lunatics (1929)

G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was an English writer well known for his detective fiction, religious writings, biographies, literary, social, and political commentary, and modern history. He published nearly 100 books and over 4,000 newspaper columns and essays.
