The Curious Case of Mr Holmes
„Lapsang souchong. I hope the smoky aroma won’t startle you.“
Two solitaires obsessed with crime from the times when blacks, Indians, Poles, junkies, queers, women, and children still knew their place. A Victorian rhapsody about the desire to grow so close to crime that one’s – or rather a man’s – starkly white shirt and leather gloves cannot remain stainless. Steady steps in a new era characterized by self-satisfaction of the brain.
