Beschreibung

What lies beneath the elegance of high society?

The Complete Works of Edith Wharton gathers the full literary legacy of one of America's greatest novelists and the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. With piercing insight and psychological precision, Wharton exposed the hidden rules, emotional restraints, and quiet tragedies of upper-class life in America and Europe.

This comprehensive collection includes her major novels, short stories, and novellas—exploring themes of love and duty, freedom and convention, wealth and isolation. From the rigid social codes of New York's elite to intimate portraits of individuals trapped by circumstance, Wharton's writing reveals how society shapes—and often limits—human happiness.

Elegant, unsentimental, and deeply humane, her work stands at the crossroads of realism and modern psychological fiction.

    The Adventure of the Three Garridebs (1924), one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 12 stories in the cycle collected as The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes.According to Dr. Watson's opening narration, this story is set at "the latter end of June, 1902 ... the same month that Holmes refused a knighthood for services which may perhaps some day be described." This is a parallel to the knighthood of Arthur Conan Doyle around the same time. Holmes receives a letter from a Nathan Garrideb of 136 Little Ryder Street,asking for help in a most peculiar quest. He is looking for another man with his unusual surname, for it will mean a $5 million inheritance for him. He has been approached by another man, John Garrideb of Kansas, who says that he needs to find others with the same last name.The American Garrideb comes to see Holmes and Watson at 221B Baker Street, and is apparently not very pleased that Nathan Garrideb has involved a detective. Garrideb, who claims to be a lawyer, spins a ridiculous story about Alexander Hamilton Garrideb, a millionaire land tycoon he met in Kansas. Hamilton Garrideb bequeathed his $15 million estate to John Garrideb on the provision that he find two more Garridebs to share it with equally. He came to England to seek out people with the name, having failed in his own country. So far, he has found only Nathan...Famous works of the author Arthur Conan Doyle: A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, The Valley of Fear, His Last Bow, The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes, Stories of Sherlock Holmes, The Lost World.
