Bookish Matters

The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.

Sherlock Holmes


Sherlock Holmes is very much in the public eye these days. As I'm sure you know, there's the wonderful second season of BBC's Sherlock, and there's the sequel to the Robert Downey Jr movie (which I have yet to see, my little local theater plays movies months later than everyone else). I can't find my copy of the original stories, much to my unhappiness. They were housed on the floor beside my bed for over a year. Wait, wait...there it is! Hiding amongst the DFW on the Newly Acquired shelf!

  2. Nice artwork.

    Have you seen the Russian adaptation with Vasily Livanov as Sherlock Holmes.

    Livanov is my all time favorite Holmes along with Basil Rathbone.

    Cheers!
