Pustolovine Sherlocka Holmesa

Arthur Conan Doyle

In this book, the youth library presents a selection of twenty of the most beautiful stories about the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes and his faithful assistant Doctor Watson.

The book includes all the famous adventures from the so-called of the "first period" of Holmes's unsurpassed criminal investigations: "Haunted in Bohemia", "The Association of Redheads", "The Greek Interpreter", "The Speckled Ribbon", "Mysterious Case in the Boscombe Valley"... The book "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" in the best possible way confirms the words of a famous critic who noted: "The whole saga of Holmes is a triumphant illustration of the claim that art is above life. Perhaps no fictional prose character has become so magically real to its readers." The Youth Library publishes a new translation by Giga Gračan, which - unlike most previous translations - faithfully adheres to the original. The text is accompanied by brilliant drawings by Sidney Paget for The Strand magazine, in which these stories were first printed.
