Am reading Sherlock Holmes now…I finished A study in Scarlet on last Monday and The Sign of the Four on Tuesday. On Tuesday evening I finished A Scandal in Bohemia and on wednesday
I finished A Case of Identity,The Boscombe Valley Mystery and The Five Orange Pips, and started The Man with the Twisted Lip. I have finished the whole works of Sherlock holems when I was a boy, and last month I brought a full set of Sherlock Holmes when Crosswords offered a sale.
What I like about Holems is his reasoning and the ability to spot the things one may easily overlook. I was a Holmes fan from long back and still remain teh same. I have devored many a crime novels, but no where I have seen the flash of geinuss interwoven with intelligence and observation power, supplimented by the infinte capacity to deduce the fact from trifiles…
If you examine Him closely, you can easily see that Holems is not a Copy Book hero, but a real man with virtues and vices…(or what you can call one who injects Opium when he dont have the intoxication of work?) really I dont have to spend time reviewing Holmes coz what is there to write is already written by many…I am not sure wheter I will continue reading Holmes coz I got 4 books of Artemis Fowl seris and One book by De Bono, but I wont start anything till I finish The Man with the Twisted Lip.
