The Complete Sherlock Holmes 夏洛克•福爾摩斯全集(英文原版)(下冊)

內容簡介

This newly published English edition contains 4 fulllength novels and all 56 short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes at over a thousand pages. Rivers of ink have flowed since 1887, when Sherlock Holmes was first introduced to the world, in an adventure entitled A Study in Scarlet. Most of the great detective's fans know him so well, that they feel they have actually met him. It would therefore be presumptuous to try and define him here, as his many friends and admirers may each have very different views about this legendary personage. For those who have not made-up their minds, it might be useful if they read Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Autobiography, Memories and Adventures. They will undoubtedly come away with the notion that Sherlock Holmes resembles in many ways Dr. Joseph Bell, one of the teachers at the medical school of Edinburgh University… “英國偵探小說之父” 柯南•道爾創作的《夏洛克•福爾摩斯全集》可謂是開闢了偵探小說的不朽經典，一百多年來被譯成57種文字，暢銷世界各地。福爾摩斯更是成了名偵探的代名詞，他與華生的搭檔組合，都對後世的偵探小說有着極其深遠的影響。《夏洛克•福爾摩斯全集》問世100年後，英國皇室決定授予小說同名主人公大偵探福爾摩斯以爵士爵位。英皇授爵的條件是苛刻而嚴肅的，卻破天荒授給一個書上的虛構人物。可見，柯南•道爾100年前的著作有着多麼深遠的影響和重要意義。 《夏洛克•福爾摩斯全集》涵蓋了四篇長篇、56篇短篇福爾摩斯系列小說，全英文原版出版，同時提供配套英文朗讀免費下載，讓讀者在欣賞精彩故事的同時，亦能提升英語閱讀水平。
