Riepilogo Editore:

Watson ha messo su famiglia e si è dedicato alla carriera di medico, dunque la sua frequentazione con Holmes si limita ai soli casi più interessanti, da un punto di vista investigativo. Ma con questa serie di avventure Cona Doyle, definendole appunto Ultime intendeva metter fine al suo forse tropo celebre personaggio, pertanto , nellultimo episodio, fa entrare in scena il celeberrimo prof Moriarty, lunico, a detta di Holmes, di porre fine alla sua vita e alla sua indefessa lotta per il bene. Daccordo Holmes e Cona Doyle, ma il pubblico dei lettori? La morte di Holmes causò una vera insurrezione. Gli episodi presenti in questo volume sono: Il Gloria Scott, Lantico formulario, Linterprete di greco, Sherlock Holmes va in vacanza, un caso coniugale, Il trattato navale, la grande compagnia franco-inglese, Il reduce, Il socio del dottore, Lotta di giganti.Musica di Kevin Mac Leod.

Titolo: L'innocenza di Padre Brown [The Innocence of Father Brown]

Formato: Unabridged

Lingua: Italiano

Data di pubblicazione: 01-31-11

Editore: Collina d'oro

Valutazioni: 3 su 5 su 2 voti

Categoria: Mysteries & Thrillers, Classic Detective

Riepilogo Editore:

Ecco come Gilbert Keith (G. K.) Chesterton descrive il fortunato personaggio letterario uscito dalla sua penna: La prima caratteristica di Padre Brown è di non avere caratteristiche; la sua importanza, di non apparire importante; e che la sua qualità cospicua quella di non essere cospicuo, e il suo ordinarissimo esterno vuole essere in contrasto con la sua attenzione e la sua intelligenza insospettate. Non è trasandato, ma piuttosto accurato; non è impacciato, ma molto delicato ed accorto; un irlandese sensibile e di spirito pronto, con la profonda ironia e un po' di quella potenziale capacità d'irritarsi "propria della sua razza".Il primo romanzo con cui viene alla luce questo personaggio, protagonista di famose serie televisive (una per tutte, si ricorda quella con Renato Rascel), è proprio Linnocenza di Padre Brown, che raccoglie i primi dodici racconti, iniziati nel 1911. Dodici gemme in cui, con la scusa dellavventura poliziesca o mistery, il piccolo prete cattolico ci regala altrettante gemme di saggezza, buon senso, e carità cristiana.Musiche di Kevin Mac Leod.

Title: The Best of Sherlock Holmes, Volume 3

Author: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Narrator: John Gielgud, Ralph Richardson

Format: Original Recording

Length: 1 hr and 42 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-11-10

Publisher: Heritage Media Limited

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Classic Detective

Publisher's Summary:

Contents:

"The Solitary Bicyclist": Holmes helps a young woman in danger after the death of a rich uncle.

"Six Napoleons": Holmes tracks down a precious gem placed by a clever jewel thief in a "perfect" hiding place.

"The Red-Headed League": A curious society of red-headed men leads Holmes to stumble on plans for a bank robbery.

"A Case of Identity": A conniving man ruthlessly schemes to gain the inheritance of his step-daughter.

Editorial Reviews:

The best Sherlock Holmes mysteries are the originals written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and this original BBC radio performance from the 1950s captures four favorites: "The Solitary Bicyclist", "Six Napoleons", "The Red-Headed League", and "A Case of Identity". A recording from the golden age of radio, the voice performances are matchless, with Holmes played by the multi-award-winning John Gielgud, whose voice Sir Alec Guinness compared to "a silver trumpet muffled in silk", and Watson performed by acclaimed stage actor Ralph Richardson, who once ran the Old Vic. With their impeccable dramatic timing and rich voices just made for radio, Gielgud and Richardson make one of the best Watson/Holmes dramatic pairings in existence.

this was still a nice collection of stories with nice

Having read all of the Sherlock Holmes stories many times, this was still a nice collection of stories with nice illustrations

The Game is Afoot!

Wonderful little books. Enjoying immensely :)

12 From the Author, 8 from the editor. Can't fault the selection.

A hard-to-fault selection of Sherlock Holmes mysteries. 12 of the stories were selected by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as the best from the 44 stories that had appeared by then. David Stuart Davies adds a further 8 to the mix, which include such classics as The Man With the Twisted Lip, The Blue Carbuncle, and Charles Augustus Milverton. The mysteries seem to lose little of their charm and appeal more than a century after their writing. Short introduction by Davies is a useful bonus that reveals interesting tidbits.

"In the March 1927 issue of The Strand Magazine, a competition was held to choose the twelve best Sherlock Holmes stories from the forty-four already published in book form. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle had made his choice and placed the titles in a sealed envelope and readers were invited to match the great man's selection. ... It is fascinating to note that not one entrant chose the exact same titles. The winner, a Mr R.T. Norman, managed ten."

These are the twelve stories selected by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

1. The Speckled Band - a personal favorite of mine

2. The Red-Headed League

3. The Dancing Men - fascinating

4. The Final Problem - a must-read for every Sherlock Holmes, where the detective meets his end, almost, at the hands of his nemesis, Prof Moriarty.

5. A Scandal in Bohemia

6. The Empty House - aka the Return of Sherlock Holmes.

7. The Five Orange Pips

8. The Second Stain

9. The Devil's Foot

10. The Priory School

11. The Musgrave Ritual

12. The Reigate Squires

and the 8 additional stories selected for this collection are:

1. The Man With the Twisted Lip

2. The Blue Carbuncle

3. The Copper Beeches

4. Silver Blaze

5. The Greek Interpreter

6. The Solitary Cyclist

7. Charles Augustus Milverton

"The Empty House": The proverb "Dead men tell no tales" is proved untrue when Holmes returns to mete out justice to the last of the Moriarty gang.

"The Blue Carbuncle": Sherlock Holmes' Christmas celebration is interrupted by a goose. A goose that swallowed the precious "blue carbuncle" jewel.

Editorial Reviews:

With voices in the peak of form, two of Englands greatest actors headline classic performances of Arthur Conan Doyles Sherlock Holmes stories.

Sir John Gielgud as the brilliant detective Holmes and Sir Ralph Richardson as his partner-against-crime Dr. Watson star in four BBC radio productions. Included in this volume are "The Yatsley Case", in which Holmes investigates a stabbing; "The Blue Carbuncle", which features a goose as a jewel thief; "The Final Problem", a production also starring Orson Welles, as Professor Moriarty, in the tale of the last meeting of arch-enemies; and "The Empty House", which highlights the machinations of a presumed-dead Holmes.

Résumé de l'éditeur:

La légende court dans le Devonshire (Sud-Ouest de l'Angleterre) qu'un énorme chien crachant du feu de sa gueule béante serait à l'origine de la mort de Sir Charles Baskerville. Un de ses ancêtres, Sir Hugo Baskerville, trouva la mort mystérieusement après avoir commis d'immondes atrocités envers une jeune paysanne.

Sherlock Holmes et le docteur Watson enquêtent. Ils doivent protéger le dernier descendant des Baskerville, le jeune Sir Henry Baskerville, qui revient du Canada pour toucher son énorme héritage et vivre dans le château de sa famille, isolé sur la lande. Sherlock Holmes pourra-t-il sauver le dernier des Baskerville de la malédiction qui menace sa vie ?

Ce roman est l'aventure de Sherlock Holmes la plus célèbre, la plus inquiétante et la plus appréciée.

L'auteur

est né en 1859 à Edimbourg en Ecosse. Après des études chez les jésuites, il obtient un diplôme de docteur en médecine. Et c'est en tant que médecin de bord qu'il débute. Il voyage beaucoup, dans les mers de l'Arctique et le long des côtes de l'Afrique.

Alors qu'il exerce encore la médecine, il commence à écrire, sous l'influence d'Émile Gaboriau (père du genre), des romans policiers. Le succès de son premier roman

, écrit en 1887 l'incite à abandonner son métier pour se consacrer à la littérature. Il publie d'autres romans policiers, dont les plus célèbres constituent la série des

, où il donne à son personnage de policier amateur une dimension exceptionnelle, qui a même influencé les méthodes de la criminologie moderne.

Très brillant, Conan Doyle est aussi l'auteur de nombreuses nouvelles, de romans historiques, d'une histoire de La guerre des Boers, et d'une histoire en six volumes de la Grande Guerre.

Il s'est intéressé à la protection et à l'équipement des militaires britanniques. Il fut également un sportif accompli, s'adonnant au football, au cricket, à la course automobile, à la boxe...

Sir Conan Doyle est mort en 1930 dans le Sussex.

Title: Whose Body? [Dramatised]

Author: Dorothy L. Sayers

Narrator: Ian Carmichael, Patricia Routledge

Format: Original Recording

Length: 2 hrs and 20 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-04-10

Publisher: BBC Worldwide Limited

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Classic Detective

Publisher's Summary:

Ian Carmichael is Lord Peter Wimsey, with Patricia Routledge as his mother, in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation. Dorothy L. Sayers first Lord Peter Wimsey tale introduces many of the authors best-known characters.

Wimseys mother, the Dowager Duchess of Denver, rings her son with news of such a quaint thing. She has heard through a friend that Mr Thipps, a respectable Battersea architect, found a dead man in his bath - wearing nothing but a gold prince-nez. Lord Wimsey makes his way straight over to Mr Thipps, and a good look at the body raises a number of interesting questions.

Why would such an apparantly well-groomed man have filthy black toenails, flea bites and the scent of carbolic soap lingering on his corpse? Then comes the disappearance of oil millionaire Sir Reuben Levy, last seen on the Battersea Park Road. With his beard shaved he would look very similar to the man found in the bath but is Sir Levy really dead?

Members Reviews:

Another great Lord Peter Wimsey dramatization!

I'm a big fan of Dorothy Sayers, and I love these dramatizations starring Ian Carmichael. This is another good one. The ending's a little odd and a bit forced, but whatever - the performances are great.

A good dramatisation.

BBC radio drama at its best - Ian Carmichael and Peter Jones are first class, establishing the master servant relationship with its mixture of formality and intimacy. An honest adaptation of the original, finely characterised and suitably paced. Wisely, in other dramatisations, the BBC abandoned Wimsey's singing; it jars in this one.

Good dramatisation.

Love the cast all the voices fit the characters and story flows well.

Good buy

a good starting point in lord Peter wimsey

this works well as a good first time out for lord Peter wimsey. well told with good performance from leading actors.

classic

great story....but then i love the peter wimsey stories. another triumph for ian carmichael.
