East Wind Coming

By: Yuichi Hirayama

Narrated by: J.T. McDaniel

East meets West as one of the most talented British Sherlockian scholars, John Hall, and a Japanese member of the Baker Street Irregulars, Hirayama Yuichi, argue important Sherlockian questions. One offers the other three questions, and the other answers them with all their Sherlockian knowledge. They are serious Sherlockian battles between an English Knight and Japanese samurai!

This volume also includes Hirayama's Sherlockian papers published in The Musgraves, The Baker Street Journal, The Canadian Holmes, and The Shoso-in Bulletin.

A very interesting view on Sherlock Holmes

Japanese member of the Baker Street Irregulars, Hirayama Yuichi, and British Sherlockian scholar John Hall answered questions and debate Sherlockian questions. Also there some essays, a review and other writings. It’s a reference book that contains lot of information and some interesting history, including the translation/editing of ACD’s stories into Japanese for young children. It seems to have sparked the minds of an entire generation of children. The narration is very good.

Wonderful

More than an info dump; a gateway to an often over looked Eastern Holmesian studies and stories.A brief history of Sherlock Holmes as read and taught in Japan in some English classes there.
