Book Club Case File: My Dearest Holmes

Book Club Case File: My Dearest Holmes, by Rohase Piercy First published in 1988 by the Gay Men’s Press, My Dearest Holmes by Rohase Piercy is a very special pastiche that boasts something very rare—it’s one of the very few and certainly among the earliest published gay pastiches about the great detective and his good doctor. It celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2018. We're thrilled to have Rohase on the podcast today in our very first interview! We discuss her her depiction of a Holmes and Watson romance, it's reception, how queer readings have and haven't changed since the 1980s, and lots more. Follow Rohase on Twitter at @PiercyRohase.
