Review of 'Las aventuras de Sherlock Holmes= The adventures of Sherlock Holmes' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Esta edición es una forma estupenda para adentrarse en las aventuras del icónico detective londinense. Leerlas directamente del inglés, en versión original, puede ser complicado por la riqueza y abundancia del léxico en las descripciones, de modo que tener paralelamente el texto traducido permite dar fluidez a la lectura con menos interrupciones.
Cada aventura es breve, de unas 40-50 páginas, por lo que es ideal para ir leyéndolo cuando se tiene huecos libres, poco a poco. Sin embargo, la lógica de Holmes es tan fascinante que nada más acabar de leer una de sus aventuras el lector se queda con ganas de conocer la siguiente. Muy recomendado.
