About this product

Product Information

The basis for the Major Motion Picture Mr. Holmes starring Ian McKellen and Laura Linney and directed by Bill Condon. It is 1947, and the long-retired Sherlock Holmes, now 93, lives in a remote Sussex farmhouse with his housekeeper and her young son. He tends to his bees, writes in his journal, and grapples with the diminishing powers of his mind. But in the twilight of his life, as people continue to look to him for answers, Holmes revisits a case that may provide him with answers of his own to questions he didn't even know he was asking-about life, about love, and about the limits of the mind's ability to know. A novel of exceptional grace and literary sensitivity, A Slight Trick of the Mind is a brilliant imagining of our greatest fictional detective and a stunning inquiry into the mysteries of human connection.

Reviews
"A beautiful novel about Sherlock Holmes. . . . It's what a novel should be." -- The Washington Post "Wonderfully written and heartbreaking." -- San Francisco Chronicle "A wise and touching examination of the human condition." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review "Quite extraordinary. . . . Our hero--our eternal hero--has never been more heroic, or more human." -- The Village Voice "Beautiful. . . . Cullin is an unusually sophisticated theorist of human nature." -- The New York Times Book Review, "Mitch Cullin has written a loving, sad tale of Sherlock Holmes in the era of Hiroshima, a Holmes who is not entirely sure of his powers, but who has come into his own humanity. When I was a child I believed that Holmes was a real person. After reading "A Slight "Trick of the Mind, I know he is." - Audrey Niffenegger, author of "The Time Traveler's Wife "As he explores the mysteries of fatherless boys and childless men, Mitch Cullin transports his reader effortlessly from post-war Japan to Edwardian London. "A Slight Trick of the Mind is both intricate and absorbing, a novel of unusual range and depth." -- Margot Livesey, author of "Banishing Verona: A Novel "What a pleasure it was to re-enter Sherlock Holmes's world, and find the aged detective as intelligent and observant as I'd remembered. In Mitch Cullin's imagination, however, Holmes is more pensive and wistful--more human--than ever before. A "Slight Trick of the Mind is an elegant meditation on memory and mortality, brilliantly conceived and beautifully written, full of subtlety and wisdom and grace." - Karl Iagnemma, author of "On the Nature of Human Romantic Interaction, "A beautiful novel about Sherlock Holmes. . . .

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
