A Study in Scarlet. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

The English doctor and writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is known worldwide as the unparalleled master of the detective genre, the author of numerous works about the brilliant detective Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend Dr. Watson. The classic translations of these stories and novels, made long ago by many different translators, suffer from known shortcomings: discrepancies, omissions, blatant errors. We present to you the first volume (the novel "A Study in Scarlet", the collection "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes") of a four-volume set with a complete translation of the entire Holmes canon. This truly unique edition features all the works of the cycle translated anew by Lyudmila Brilova and Sergey Sukharev — masters whose translations of Kazuo Ishiguro and Ray Bradbury, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Charles Palliser, Thomas De Quincey, Herman Melville, and others have long since become classics. Each volume is also equipped with a large number of classical illustrations and additional materials: forewords to earlier publications, reminiscences of Conan Doyle regarding certain works, and some interviews with the writer.
This book includes the complete set of illustrations by Sidney Paget that accompanied the original publication of "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" in the magazine "Strand", as well as illustrations by Joseph Friedrich for one of the first Czech editions of "A Study in Scarlet".
