Happy Birthday Sherlock Holmes!

According to Christopher Morley, today marks the 159^th birth anniversary of Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock Holmes is an immortal character in every sense of the word. He is the most portrayed fictional character ever and continues to be as popular today as he was in the late 19^th century.

Here’s wishing the very best of fame and popularity to the world’s greatest fictional detective.

Arthur Conan Doyle and Wife (1892)

Arthur Conan Doyle passed away on this day in 1930.

In addition to Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle also created Professor Challenger in his novel The Lost World and a few other stories. He was equally at home in non-fiction as he was in the fiction genre.

As a tribute to this certifiable genius of a writer, I present here my personal favorite Sherlock Holmes quote from The Sign of Four:

“…when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth…”

Thank You Conan Doyle for the Sherlock Holmes Canon and The Lost World. I owe a considerable amount of gratitude to the Canon for developing my interest in reading books and improving my vocabulary.

I have a lot more of your works on my to-read list!
