Vincent Starrett. The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes. Revided Edition on 2040-motos
Vincent All description
The
Private Life of Sherlock Holmes “This new edition of The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes is certain to be greeted with joy by Sherlockians everywhere. Hailed as the 'standard life' of the famous sleuth, Mr. Starrett's book has long enjoyed immense popularity but for many years has been available only as a collector's item. “Written with charm and 'scholarship,' The Private Life is a semi-serious imaginative recreation of the best-loved character in modern literature. Sherlock Holmes has become more than a legend to the many who believe he really existed on earth. Using as his source the 'Sacred Writings' (i.e. the sixty tales recorded by John H. Watson, M.D.), Mr. Starrett carefully constructs his biography and succeeds in creating a vivid portrait of a man who never lived. Though not seriously intended to be a literary study, the book contains a great deal of valuable information about Conan Doyle and his stories, those 'best of all fairy tales for adults.'”
