It contains the earliest short stories featuring the consulting detective Sherlock Holmes, which had been published in twelve monthly issues of The Strand Magazine from July 1891 to June 1892. The stories are collected in the same sequence, which is not supported by any fictional chronology. The only characters common to all twelve are Holmes and Dr. Watson, and all are related in first-person narrative from Watson's point of view. In general, the stories in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes identify, and try to correct, social injustices. Holmes is portrayed as offering a new, fairer sense of justice. The stories were well received and boosted the subscription figures of The Strand Magazine, prompting Doyle to be able to demand more money for his next set of stories. '

They began writing books together as a joke, but quickly developed into serious artists, producing several works now recognised as classics such as The Real Charlotte and Some Experiences of an Irish RM. This collection includes both those titles, alongside The Silver Fox, described as their ‘miniature masterpiece’, and a fascinating biographical drama telling the story of their writing partnership. The Real Charlotte – Reluctantly obliged to look after her penniless young cousin, respectable spinster Charlotte Mullen decides to marry her off to a rich man as soon as possible. But Francie is both beautiful and wilful, and Charlotte soon finds her carefully laid plans going terribly awry… Sorcha Cusack, Elaine Symons and Lorcan Cranitch star in this satire of genteel 19th-century Irish society. The Silver Fox – Captain French, recently returned from India, has reopened his ancestral pile in west Cork. But his restless new wife and a strangely elusive silver fox hint at troubled times ahead. John Dougall and Gillian Kearney star in this dark, politically astute tale of hunting, friendship, love and the national battle for freedom. The Experiences of an Irish RM – When the affable, if somewhat dim, ex-British Army officer Major Sinclair Yeates is appointed Resident Magistrate in west Cork, he finds himself among a people who seem dedicated to thwarting him. As the years go by, he gradually becomes accustomed to their eccentricities – with the notable exception of his nemesis, Flurry Knox... Alex Jennings stars in this adaptation of Somerville and Ross’s comic novels set in rural Ireland. Somerville and Ross – Written and narrated by Denys Hawthorne, this captivating tale explores the lives and fiction of the remarkable literary duo, whose works chronicled the twilight world of the Anglo-Irish ascendancy – a world of hunting, tennis parties, amateur theatricals and decaying country houses. Eithne Dunne stars as Somerville, with Kate Binchy as Ross.

Title: The Picture Of Dorian Gray: Full Cast Recording Author: Oscar Wilde Narrator: The Tram, Robert Noel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 37 minutes Release date: April 10, 2024 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: In the dimly lit atelier of Basil Hallward, a talented and idealistic artist, the portrait of Dorian Gray comes to life on the canvas. This portrait, a masterpiece capturing the youth and allure of its subject, becomes the focal point of Oscar Wilde's haunting and philosophical novel, 'The Picture of Dorian Gray.' Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century London, the novel opens with a scene of artistic inspiration. Basil, enamored by the beauty and innocence of his muse, Dorian Gray, lavishes praise upon him, declaring the portrait his finest work. Lord Henry Wotton, a charming and cynical friend, introduces Dorian to a hedonistic worldview that challenges the conventional morality of the time. Dorian, captivated by Lord Henry's ideas, wishes for eternal youth and beauty, expressing a desire for his portrait to age instead of him. In a Faustian twist, Dorian's wish is granted, and the portrait becomes a repository for the consequences of his debauchery and moral decay. As Dorian embarks on a life of pleasure, indulging in every hedonistic desire without the physical toll on his own appearance, the portrait undergoes a grotesque transformation. The once-pure image becomes a grotesque reflection of Dorian's corrupted soul. Yet, Dorian remains untouched by the consequences of his actions, his external appearance preserved in perpetual youth. The narrative weaves through the decadent society of London, exposing the hypocrisy and moral decay that lurk beneath the surface of Victorian respectability. Dorian's double life becomes a source of scandal and intrigue, and his portrait bears witness to the hidden horrors of his soul.
