Re: First Time Sherlock Holmes Readthrough III (ignore if you're uninterested, etc)

[(Anonymous)]

The Copper Beeches is one of my favorite Sherlock Holmes stories too. I'm laughing at your description of it as "Jane Eyre on absinthe." It's so creepy, I think especially because the atmosphere is so calm and cheery, and the fact that there's so many weird things that are rather superfluous to the plot, which makes the situation all the more believable. I'm so glad you're enjoying these stories so much. And if you're going to be reading the novels next, you'll get quite a lot of Lestrade in A Study in Scarlet. You'll also get more Holmes being mean to Watson about his stories.

The whole "Watson wrote the stories" thing is a HUGE preoccupation for hardcore Sherlock Holmes fans -- they love coming up with theories about the context of certain un-elaborated-on aspects of the stories, and the dates of the stories that don't have dates or have contradictory dates. They sometimes come up with the most insane theories, although it's (usually) all in fun. The practice is called "the great game."
