America has a God-shaped hole in its heart, argues New York Times best-selling author Ben Shapiro, and we shouldn't fill it with politics and hate.

Most Important Book of the New Millennium
Revisado: 03-27-19
This vital read lays out the evolution of Western civilization, exposing the philosophical and moral underpinnings that enabled individual freedom and liberal society amidst the burnt earth of a fallen-world replete with pain, oppression, misfortune and death.
An easy and compelling read, this sage’s reader outlines the uncanny birth of the miraculous West and the forces of decay that threaten your civic, spiritual, and even physical well-being — and that of the world we leave behind for our children.

G. K. Chesterton’s Father Brown is perhaps the most lovable amateur detective ever created. This short, shabby priest with his cherubic, round face attracts situations that baffle everyone - except Father Brown and his rather naïve wisdom. The twelve enthralling stories in this book take Father Brown from London to Cornwall, from Italy to France, as he gets involved with bandits, treason, murder, curses, and an American crime-detection machine.

Droll reader quaint at first, but soon tedious
Revisado: 10-06-17
Chesterton's Father Brown stories are all clever and entertaining, yet rife with wisdom. However, the narrator of this edition is problematic.
While his aristocratic English accent is novel and delightfully droll at first, it soon becomes a tedious distraction. His cadences are repetitive, droning on like a bad musical, and his inflections are oddly, even wrongly placed, often making sentence syntax confounding.
Also, his volume trails off at the end of many sentences, so that the listener is forced to rewind several times before giving up on comprehending the full meaning of the sentence.
All this has a somatic, almost hypnotic effect, so that the listener inevitably forgets to listen, attention trailing off into tangential thoughts and daydreams.
In short, it's not an attention grabber.
In all fairness to this narrator, he reads a King Arthur book that I enjoyed; it gave the stories an oddly comical but less off-putting flavor.
