43 The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax from His Last Bow [ Sherlock Holmes ] (1917) Audiobook

Ойын-сауық

The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax is a short story featuring the exploits of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. It appears in the volume of stories published in 1917 entitled 'His Last Bow', written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Something odd is afoot in Lausanne and Holmes is far too busy to leave London, fearing that the Empire will grind to a halt should he do so. He persuades Watson to head over to Switzerland to look for Lady Frances who hasn't written to her old nanny in ages. There's an Honourable gentleman who sounds a bit of a rough diamond and a dubious chap from the antipodes who professes to be a missionary.
Holmes is, as usual somewhat dismissive of Watson's investigative powers. It's not one of Conan Doyle's best stories and this is far from one of my best narrations. SNAP!
It is read (on an interesting microphone) by Greg Wagland for Magpie Audio.

    Me too, 64 yrs and I wasn't interested until I heard this story teller. The combination of Conan Doyles beautiful words and the delivery by Mr Wagland is a magical combination. My born again experience has begun here . .

    No need to feel disappointed with this narration nor Doyle's story. It is original and entertaining. I rather like the fact that it takes Watson out of his usual environment. Although Holmes may seem dismissive of Watson, he does have confidence enough to send Watson to Switzerland without him and depend entirely upon his observational and narrative ability. Thank you for posting.

Who would've thought that with the advent of technology, we would effectively regress to the days of the fireside story, and we would all be gathered around, figuratively speaking, to listen to Greg tell us a story from a hundred years ago.

    In real life, chloroform is very deadly when inhaled for longer than a very short time. THAT is the main reason why it has been abandoned as an anaesthetic during surgery: there is not enough of a safe margin between a dose needed to achieve the desired effect and a deadly one.

    Excellent as always. I find it peculiar that not only do you get any thumbs down, but you get them almost immediately after posting something. Are there just anti-Greg people who sit there and wait for you to post, just so they can declare (without comment) that they thoroughly disapprove? At least ‘Disgusted, from Tunbridge Wells’ bothered to write in with an explanation of objection. Perhaps these Thumbs Downers are merely jealous rivals who should really ask inwardly why they simply have boring and shit voices, rather than outwardly spew diversion tactics. Maybe some people think it’s their British civic duty to balance out any form of praise. Don’t want Sir Greg of Wag Land getting too big for his boots. No sir! Weird. I disapprove of the disapprovers.

    Cheers sim3otto Yes! What are the motivations of the Thumbs Downers? They react so quickly that they clearly haven't bothered to listen to more than a fraction of it, if at all. They don't like 'em but are very keen to thumbs down the next offering - reminds me of zombies returning to the shopping mall and banging up against the big glass windows. Let them continue if it gives their 'lives' some purpose! I will continue to eat the supplies within the mall and taunt them through the glass. Let's hope they don't get a hammer anytime soon and that a helicopter is on its way. I'm very fond of zombie movies by the way. Thumbs downers gonna thumbs down, as no one ever said.

    "I cannot at the moment recall any possible blunder which you have omitted. The total effect of your proceeding has been to give the alarm everywhere and yet to discover nothing." Oh my, the absolute biting wit! And the good Mr. Wagland had delivered it with astonishing perfection. I had to replay it several times, laughing with satisfied amusement. The lines, the delivery. Perfection!

    I have a friend who notices the changes in everyone's shoes and appearance the way SH did at the beginning of the story. My friend is a renown novelist. Canon Doyle might have been imagining his own capacities for SH.

    You actually did the narritive? You did the reading?? Ah cool !! You my dear friend,(and i mean that truely) did a great job because when i hear this voice, yours, i always always imagine you and me sitting at a cafe table with tea and biscuits, you with a stogie and myself, with a Kent cigarette, the large windows looking into the street. I lean forward to hear every word and you tell, the whole story right from the start. This is vision has occured more than ounce, when hearing this voice. Fact. 😳 M.kaye. IL. 🇺🇸

    Well, that's very kind - an interesting vision. I would prefer a cup of coffee perhaps or a pint of bitter, a bag of crisps, and maybe a small cigar or pipe. I often imagine there's a rich benefactor out there who would like me to read to them at night for half an hour until they dropped off and then the rest of the day would be my own to mooch about and spend my massive salary. Anyone ?
