MY FAVOURITE WRITER
Arthur Conan Doyle
I love reading English classical literature. But I am
especially fond of English detective and adventure stories.
I like Agatha Christie's books but my favourite
author is Arthur Conan Doyle. I like him because his
fiction is very realistic and helps me develop me thinking
and knowledge.
Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Scotland in the family
of Irish. He was a doctor. In 1882 he moved from
Scotland to England to set up a practice. His medical
knowledge was a great help to him in his detective stories.
Conan Doyle was one of the first writers who started
the fashion of detective story. Today the fashion goes on
with the stories of other writers.
Conan Doyle created his famous character, Sherlock
Holmes, in 1885. Six years later, when Conan Doyle wrote
some stories about this detective, the name of Sherlock
Holmes became the name that everybody knew. Sherlock
Holmes first appeared in a book called «Study in Scarlet*
(«Этюд в багровых тонах»). «The Adventures of
Sherlock Holmes* made him famous all over the world.
Conan Doyle was a famous writer. He became popular
because of his love for people.
