Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Novels and Stories Volume I

An interesting book with great mysteries

Day before yesterday I bought this book volume 1 and 2.now all pages are remove.very bad quality.

Si tratta del primo di due volumi sulle avventure del detective più famoso del mondo. Ottima lettura in lingua originale ad un prezzo estremamente basso. Il libro è un "mattone": copertina flessibile, molto spesso, carta delle pagine abbastanza fragile. È sopravvissuto ad una settimana di vacanza, gettato più volte al giorno nello zaino quindi non dovreste avere grossi problemi. Grandissimo libro

I'm a fan of detective stories and was therefore extremely happy to find this collection of short stories about Sherlock Holmes. The writing is so good that you can paint a mental picture of Sherlock and from time to time get annoyed with his arrogance and the admiration of Watson. The mysteries are also not for the reader to be solved. One is merely invited to witness the conclusions of Sherlock's great minds. Although with some stories my guesses were pretty close to the truth. However, I'd recommend it to everyone who enjoys detective stories.

عيبه حجمه صغير والكتابة صغيرة بحجم القاموس الانجليزي تقريبا كنت اتوقعه كبير الحجم

I definitely enjoyed reading (and re-reading) the adventures of the famous sleuth! The stories chosen depict a very acute image of Sherlock Holmes and if we read between the lines, there's no question about his being an anti-hero, appearing a "good" character at moments and a "scornful" one at others. Definitely well-written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
