    Doyle persists in a surprising flaw here that pervades all of his work and that is that he all too often has corpses bearing grimaces or faces contorted in horror with clenched fists and so on when that simply doesn’t happen and can’t happen. Muscles relax and go slack upon death. It’s curious that he didn't research this particular medical point when he found it so tempting to write about.

    Consider for a moment the possibility that the most cold-hearted, calculating, and accomplished villain in the entire Sherlock Holmes canon is not Professor Moriarty, but rather an innocent-looking young Australian woman who, having decided to murder her husband for his money, first manipulates a kind-hearted but slow-witted sailor into doing the actual killing for her, next effortlessly induces him and her own maid to cover up all evidence of the crime, and finally, without so much as saying a word or lifting a finger, convinces Holmes not to turn her in to the police.

    • @veritas6335
      @veritas6335 2 месяца назад +1

      No no - the English banished criminals to Australia in the 1800s, perhaps even earlier, from what’s been told about it. That’s how they populated the territory. The criminals generally spoke cockney English, so that their children and the population in general were raised hearing only cockney English. And, lamentably, that grew to be the accepted form of speech in Australia. Still is, although some overcome it.
      So if this lady were “raised in southern Australia,” as Doyle says, presumably she’d have spoken with an Australian accent. I haven’t time to research the history of Adelaide, but that seems likely.

    I like this story. :)
    But that one needless, racist line in the middle of the murderer's story taints a lot of this adventure for me, unfortunately... By all other accounts I like this story and find the murderer to be a person with a great heart. I think that's why that line urks me so hard. If the abusive victim was saying racist things I wouldn't mind as he, after all, was framed in the wrong in this story. But since such a virtuous guy was saying it and it wasn't framed as wrong by anyone in the story, It's just... well, quite deeply upsetting.

    I can't get my head around the beeswing. The glasses are described as two having clear wine and one having beeswing. How, then, were the dregs of the two poured into the one? How were the two even filled from that bottle, which was also full of beeswing?
