Synopsis

This volume explores what makes Sherlock Holmes such a distinctive and widely recognised figure in literature, and how readers and enthusiasts around the world continue to connect with the character. Across forty essays, contributors consider the many ways Holmes is experienced and reinterpreted, from collecting memorabilia to encountering the detective’s influence in unexpected areas such as science fiction and martial arts.

The collection also looks at the character’s embrace within the LGBTQ+ community, alongside broader reflections on why Holmes remains so compelling. All proceeds are donated to the Beacon Society, a scion society of the BSI that provides scholarships to schools, libraries and Sherlock Holmes groups for educational purposes.
