Different, again. A contemporary short story about romantic relationships but with an sf premise to which the first attached cover image might give some clue although I am not going to read any further into it this evening and will probably not be on the computer tomorrow. Merry Christmas, everyone.
Here is yet another early short story with a remarkable number of cover illustrations as I might demonstrate.
I will shortly watch TV news. We have been without a TV for just over a year - until Mike, whom I have mentioned somewhere on this blog, fixed the aerial.
GK Chesterton's Father Brown was one of the many fictional detectives to come after Sherlock Holmes. A British TV adaptation of Brown has an offshoot, Sister Boniface, about a detective nun. She was on while I was posting about the science of Poul Anderson's "Security," an aspect of my immediate environment of which blog readers were obviously completely unaware!I will return to The Hound Of The Baskervilles before retiring.
Laterz.
Kaor, Paul!
ReplyDeleteA. Conan Doyle really jump started the mystery genre! Of UK writers I read the mysteries of Chesterton, Sayers, Carr, Allingham, and Christie. I think I like best those of Sayers' and Carr.
Reading THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES and gotten to Chapter 6.
Happy New Year! Sean
