Arthur Conan Doyle
is schrijver.Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is the creator Sherlock Holmes, the best-known detective in literature and the embodiment of scientific thinking. Doyle himself was not a good example of rational personality: he believed in fairies and was interested in occultism. Sherlock Holmes stories have been translated into more than fifty languages, and made into plays, films, radio and television series, a musical comedy, a ballet, cartoons, comic books, and advertisement. By 1920 Doyle was one of the most highly paid writers in the world.
Doyle was born on May 22, 1859 at Picardy Place, Edinburgh, as the son of Charles Altamont Doyle, a civil servant in the Edinburgh Office of Works, and Mary (Foley) Doyle. Both of Doyle's parents were Roman Catholics. His father suffered from epilepsy and alcoholism and was eventually institutionalized. Charles Altamont died in an asylum in 1893. In the same year Doyle decided to finish permanently the adventures of his master detective. Because of financial problems, Doyle's mother kept a boarding house. Dr. Tsukasa Kobayashi has suspected in an article, that Doyle's mother had a long affair with Bryan Charles Waller, a lodger and a student of pathology, who had a deep impact to Conan Doyle.

Samenvatting
In 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' by Arthur Conan Doyle, we are transported to the eerie moors of Devonshire where Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson investigate a malevolent curse haunting the Baskerville family. The novel blends elements of detective fiction, gothic horror, and psychological suspense, creating a gripping narrative that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. Doyle's writing is clear and concise, yet he masterfully weaves in atmospheric descriptions that immerse the reader in the chilling landscape of the moors. Arthur Conan Doyle, a trained physician and prolific writer, drew inspiration from his own medical background and interest in forensic science to craft the character of Sherlock Holmes. The creation of Holmes revolutionized detective fiction and established Doyle as one of the most influential authors in the genre. 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' showcases Doyle's keen eye for detail and talent for crafting intricate plots that keep readers guessing until the final reveal. I highly recommend 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' to readers who enjoy a classic mystery with a touch of the supernatural. Doyle's iconic detective and the haunting setting of the moors make for a thrilling reading experience that is sure to captivate mystery lovers of all ages.
