Biography:
Award-winning author Liese Sherwood-Fabre knew she
was destined to write when she got an A+ in the second
grade for her story about Dick, Jane, and Sally‘s ruined picnic.
She has recently turned a childhood interest in Sherlock
Holmes into an as-yet unpublished series on the young detective
and his unusually gifted family. Her research into
Victorian England led her to write short essays related to
various aspects of the times when Sherlock Holmes solved
his mysteries.
Most recently, she has contributed two articles in a justreleased
essay collection on the women in the original Sherlock
Holmes stories. Villains, Victims, and Violets: Agency
and Feminism in the Original Sherlock Holmes Canon explores
Holmes‘ world through the lives of the women who occupied
it: the villains driven astray; the victims he rescued; and
the strong, pivotal Violets from his most unforgettable
cases. It‘s available now from BrownWalker Press. This next
year, look for both this origin series on Sherlock Holmes
and third collection of essays on Victorian England.
