Re: ACD Holmes reading memories

I never felt that way. But I don't think it ever struck me like that. I think I was just happy to have him back, honestly - happy that he'd come back. I was nowhere near a critical enough reader to have that kind of reaction. And it probably didn't help that IMO the stories in the Return are on the whole the best in the whole canon.

What I do remember very well is the wonderful Christopher Morley introduction they had in the edition that I had - which really set the tone of everything, for me. It really sticks in my mind, and even now, it's definitely very evocative of how I feel about Sherlock Holmes.

I have to agree on that -- those stories don't read like something someone wrote because they were under pressure and needed money. That's why I was a little surprised when I found that out. (I read the stories in a cheap edition without notes so I found out much later.)
