Writing a letter

At first, I'd like to tell you some words about the author of this book, because I want to write my letter to him.

 

Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle is a world famous Scottish and English writer, author of detective works about Sherlock Holmes' adventures,  science fiction stories about Professor Challenger, humor stories about the brigadier Gerard. "A Scandal in Bohemia", the first story in the series "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", was published in the magazine "The Strand" in 1891. The prototype of the main character, who soon became a legendary detective and consultant, was Joseph Bell. He is a professor at the University of Edinburgh, famous for the ability to guess the nature of the smallest details and the person's past. Four novels was devoted to the advantures of Sherlock Holmes: "A Study in Scarlet" (1887), "The Sign of the Four" (1890), "The Hound of the Baskervilles," "The Valley of Fear" - and five collections of short stories, the most famous of which - "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" (1892), "Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes" (1894) and "The Return of Sherlock Holmes" (1905).

Dear Sir Arthur Conan Doyle,

 I've read your work "The Hound of the Baskervilles" and I'd like to say you that It's a very interesting book ! 

You know I like books with a misticism, but unfortunately today It's very difficult to find a book with a combinatin of the misticism and a very interesting plot. And your book has this combination. From the first pages I found what I was looking for. The mystery dog which terrorizys all residens.. It's very interesting plot. I think It will be interesting after some time. I'm sure!!!

And you know, that your character, Sherlock Holmes, became a very popular person in the world. We have a lot of games, cartoons, books about modern time, where Sherlock is the main character. And your method of a deduction.... Our minds can't think in this way.  If people could think with this method of a deduction, we would live without crimes and criminals. It will be the best world. Sometimes I want that your character, Sherlock Holmes, would be alive, would be a real person.

So, I'd like to say, simply, that you created the ideal character. And, unfortunately, we doesn't have such people as Sherlock Holmes. But we have your books. And with your help we can imagine your period of time and your thoughts which you wrote in this books. Thank you!

Sincerely,
your descendants
