The Man With The Twisted Lip
The Man With The Twisted Lip | Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, P. James Macaluso
14 posts | 22 read | 1 reading | 5 to read
Sherlock Holmes, the world's 'only unofficial consulting detective', was first introduced to readers in A Study in Scarlet published by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887. It was with the publication of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, however, that the master sleuth grew tremendously in popularity, later to become one of the most beloved literary characters of all time. In this book series, the short stories comprising The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes have been amusingly illustrated using only Lego brand minifigures and bricks. The illustrations recreate, through custom designed Lego models, the composition of the black and white drawings by Sidney Paget that accompanied the original publication of these adventures appearing in The Strand Magazine from July 1891 to June 1892. Paget's iconic illustrations are largely responsible for the popular image of Sherlock Holmes, including his deerstalker cap and Inverness cape, details never mentioned in the writings of Conan Doyle. This uniquely illustrated collection, which features some of the most famous and enjoyable cases investigated by Sherlock Holmes and his devoted friend and biographer Dr. John H. Watson, including A Sandal in Bohemia and The Red-Headed League, is sure to delight Lego enthusiasts, as well as fans of the Great Detective, both old and new. The Man with the Twisted Lip: Dr. Watson accompanies Sherlock Holmes to Kent, to investigate the strange disappearance of Neville St. Clair, a respectable country businessman. A disfigured beggar is arrested for the murder of the missing man as some clothes of Neville St. Clair were recovered from his room above an opium den. Holmes surmises, however, that the truth is less sinister and simply an exceptional case of mistaken identity.

I love the covers of these Penguin 60s - they‘re all fab even when they‘re quite horrible... 😲

A couple tiny books with big stories. I‘ve had these for ages. Of course Arthur Conan Doyle‘s will always be a staple(Sherlock💛). Dorothy Parker was a force, her quick intelligence. Two incredible authors. 💚📚 #arthurconandoyle #dorothyparker #shortstories #poetry #authors #classic #sherlock #smallbooks #read #books #mystery

CherryPie I used to have a bunch of those little books. Back in the nineties, I think. Big Blonde was the most memorable. 😀 6y

We got disguises with this one! I'm so glad to be #Sherlocked with so many awesome people. I just need to catch up with my posts. I keep thinking I'll do that but "stuff" happens. Mostly an obsession with Twitter but that counts as reading, right?

This one felt short and sweet! I liked this one even though the case itself was a light one. #Sherlocked

Sherlock's explanation of how he solved the case: "by sitting upon five pillows and consuming an ounce of shag." I want to see more of the process! #Sherlocked
