My Dear Watson – Audiobook Online Free

My Dear Watson is a good book by author L.A. Fields.
My Dear Watson offers readers a romance that requires as much reasoning to puzzle as it is passionate.
In the novel by L.A. Fields, Mrs. Watson is a smart woman, through a review of all the previous cases her husband has shared with the world’s greatest consulting detective. Realize that the two men have shared more than adventures: they are also lovers.


In 1919, after the couple had retired, Mrs. Watson invited Holmes to her home to meet him in person. Thus began the narration of a strange tale between extraordinary men. “What a unique person you are,” said Holmes maliciously. “It’s a pity that history will most likely never remember your name.” The question Mrs. Watson faces: Did Holmes simply exploit her husband’s loyalty and love, or did the detective reciprocate those feelings.
What to do now that the couple no longer lives together on Baker Street and Watson has other claims to his feelings?

The story is told from the point of view of Watson’s unnamed second wife, and her narration is clearly the author’s. Her story sticks to the ACD standard, but there are times when it feels more like an essay on gay subtext in the standard than a novel. I am now fully prepared to believe that subtext exists sometimes the author stretches her interpretation of ACD to a breaking point in order to make her theory conform to the ‘truth’.

Given that the Holmes/Watson relationship was only seen through his wife’s eyes, we never got any direct insight into their relationship and somehow the story did failed to convince me that they really loved each other. For what counts as a romance it was a huge failure and I also found the ending uneven and unsatisfactory.

I also struggled with characterization. More than once the author/narrator has said that she doesn’t like Holmes and that some people may not like the way he is presented, but I find Watson to be more deserving of objection, aside from his outspoken and heartless behavior. He is shown to be naive and gullible towards his first wife.
