Cambridge Companion to Sherlock Holmes
«'An exceptional bibliography completes this volume, which will be particularly useful for beginning Holmesians … Recommended.' B. Diemert, Choice»
Sherlock Holmes is the most famous fictional detective in history, with a popularity that has never waned since catching the imagination of his late-Victorian readership. This Companion explores Holmes' popularity and his complex relationship to the late-Victorian and modernist periods; on one hand bearing the imprint of a range of Victorian anxieties and preoccupations, while on the other shaping popular conceptions of criminality, deviance, and the powers of the detective.
