Tinged with romanticism: The Sign of Four discussion, Part 2
Manage episode 333759980 series 2852898
In the second of 2 discussions on the novella The Sign of Four, we dive into the story's messy and rather sad interpersonal drama by shining a light on the most understated of narrators - Dr. Watson himself, and the tension that is dividing his heart. Join us for a 221B vibe check (spoilers: bad vibes) as we take a look at the state of Holmes and Watson's friendship, and why Watson makes a choice that threatens it... as well as our narrative structure. Do we die defending Miss Mary Morstan? Is Doyle actually just a bad writer? Is The Sign of Four the queerest story in the canon?
Content warning: Drug use, murder, and serious themes of imperialism and racism. So much racism.
