Four Faultless Felons by G.K. Chesterton
5.0
Truly an amazing book! When can a felon be actually faultless? When is stealing not, actually, theft, etc. Chesterton certainly isn't saying that such things aren't either illegal, immoral, or sinful, but to not take what appears to be true at face value. Often the surface reality is the lie. This book includes 4 novelettes as he pursues this theme.
If you've never read his fiction beyond Fr. Brown (or read any of it at all), this is a good starting place. Fr. Brown is also an excellent starting place. This thin volume is a pretty quick read.
