Beskrivning
This is the first scholarly edition of Arthur Conan Doyle's epistolary novel, originally serialised in the Idler, 1894 95, and long out of print. With its first-hand testimony of the life of a doctor at the outset of his career in the late nineteenth century, The Stark Munro Letters will appeal to anyone with an interest in medical history. It is based on his experiences during the eight years he spent as a General Practitioner, before becoming a professional author in 1890. By some way the most autobiographical of Conan Doyle's novels written at the height of Holmes's popularity it is also the most personal in terms of presenting his worldview during his formative years, including ruminations on moral philosophy, religion, science, and evolutionary theory. Moreover, it is entertaining and incredibly vivid a contemporary critic described the mercurial Cullingworth as 'one of the finest characters Dr. Doyle has yet drawn'
