Download or read book Seventeen Minutes to Baker Street written by Daniel D. Victor and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sherlock Holmes had never met a writer who had ridiculed him as bitterly as Samuel L. Clemens had. For that matter, Holmes had never met a writer who fancied himself a detective. Yet Sam Clemens not only unraveled Holmes' investigation into the murder of the hot-blooded woman on Thor Bridge, but also, while writing as Mark Twain, belittled Holmes' highly-touted detecting skills. In this recently discovered narrative, Doctor Watson sets the record straight. He reveals other crimes related to the original murder while relating what prompted Clemens in a 1902 short story to deride the famous detective. Spurred on by such criticism, as well as by clues discovered in a classic tale by Bret Harte, Sherlock Holmes begins a new investigation, one that leads Holmes and Watson from the gardens of Windsor Castle to the spires of Oxford University in their efforts to track down a deranged assassin bent on wreaking even more havoc.
Download or read book Race Gender and Empire in American Detective Fiction written by John Cullen Gruesser and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights detection's malleability by analyzing the works of particular groups of authors from specific time periods written in response to other texts. It traces the roles that gender, race and empire have played in American detective fiction from Edgar Allan Poe's works through the myriad variations upon them published before 1920 to hard-boiled fiction (the origins of which derive in part from turn-of-the-20th-century notions about gender, race and nationality), and it concludes with a discussion of contemporary mystery series with inner-city settings that address black male and female heroism.

Download or read book Crime Seen written by Robert Eidelberg and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-06-29 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a parallel universe (also known as the state of California), private investigator Philip Marlowe, of Raymond Chandler’s masterpiece novel THE BIG SLEEP, tells us: “I watched him out of sight and went up the central walk of the La Baba and parted the branches of the third cypress. I drew out a wrapped book and put it under my arm and went away from there. No one yelled at me.” This is not that book. Also, no cypress tree. Still, no one yelled at any of us when we decided to wrap up the twenty-two pieces of writing we had artistically imagined as part of our spring 2022 creative expressions English Department course at Hunter College known in the vernacular as “Playing Detective” but listed more classically by the college’s Office of the Registrar as “English 25145 / Survey of Detective Fiction.” CRIME SEEN’s puzzle products, created by seventeen sophomores, juniors, and seniors, were incited by instructor Robert Eidelberg’s list of twenty-five ideas for “creative constructions” in, on, and about detective fiction, with drafts studiously revised, rewritten, and edited following collegial feedback from the course’s Dr. Watson-type “sidekicks.” We hope we’ve gotten you so curious that you will enter our crime scenes and enjoy our examples of crime seen.
