Las memorias de Sherlock Holmes

The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes brings together some of the legendary London detective's most famous cases. Following in the wake of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, this volume includes the original illustrations by Sidney Paget that accompanied the character's stories in The Strand magazine at the end of the 19th century. Esther Tusquets' splendid translation brings the reader closer to several enigmas that include the disappearance of racehorses and the theft of naval treaties, until reaching the narrative feat of "The Final Problem", a story in which Dr. Watson narrates, with a heavy heart, the story of the most dramatic encounter between Holmes and his brilliant and despicable archenemy, Professor Moriarty.
