The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

‘Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent’

Sherlock Holmes’s observation to Dr Watson at the start of ‘A Case of Identity’ is certainly borne out by the twelve short stories in this collection, characterized by the originality and inventiveness that have made Conan Doyle a household name.

The familiar sanctuary of 221B Baker Street is regularly invaded by a procession of puzzled clients with bizarre problems to solve. Holmes’s cases include a young engineer who arrives with one of his thumbs cut off at the root; a governess who has been offered a tempting salary provided she dresses in the exact manner specified by her employers; and a frightened young woman whose sister has inexplicably died from fear and nervous shock.
