Here at last is the truth about Sherlock Holmes and his creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Interpreting clues so obvious, so "naked," that most readers overlook them, Samuel Rosenberg proves that Professor Moriarty is really Friedrich Nietzsche, that Thaddeus Sholto in The Sign of Four is really Oscar Wilde, and that Holmes himself is Sir Arthur's superego, forever at war with repressed sexuality and unmentionable perversions.
