The Adventure of the Second Wife
The Strange Case of Abdülahamid and Sherlock Holmes
Langbeschreibung
Strange that the last great Ottoman Sultan would have Sherlock Holmes stories read to him before going to sleep. Stranger still, his addiction helped change the course of history. A clue to these goings-on lay in Conan Doyle's dying words that the one adventure that still intrigued him was 'The Second Wife'. For no such story exists... Or does it?
Andrew Finkel has spent years reporting for media organizations that include The Times, The Economist, The New York Times and CNN. He has covered wars and earthquakes, market booms and busts along with the postmodernity of the kebab. He is also food critic and contributing editor for Istanbul's Cornucopia magazine. His experiences working in the Turkish-language press prompted him to co-found P, an association to promote freedom of expression, and the Istanbul literature house, Kırathane.
