The case-book of Sherlock Holmes

Sinopsis del producto

In “The Case-book of Sherlock Holmes” we appreciate the latest stories that Conan Doyle wrote about Holmes and Watson. These stories reflect the world’s disappointment during the 1920’s, the time in which they were written, and it notices that Doyle takes advantage of new, more open fictional conventions. Compared to previous collections, these stories are darker, they explore topics such as betrayal, mutilation and also contain gothic traces such as vampires, crypts, bloodsuckers at midnight, suicide as a murder weapon and incest are some of the psychological tragedies whose consequences are unraveled by Holmes’ mind though Watson’s eyes. The collection also includes some of the best turns of ingenuity in the series and, in fact, in all English literature.
