Sherlock Holmes: Dual Language Reader (English/German)

by Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Lutz (Translator), J Bradley (Editor)

Overview

As opposed to memorizing German phrases or forcing yourself to get through another dry German grammar or verb manual, this Dual Language Reader (“DLR”) will keep you excited to get to the next page of the story, while you simultaneously absorb and learn the German language!

This compilation features Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's masterful Sherlock Holmes adventure: "The Hound of the Baskervilles" coupled with the exceptional German translation created by Robert Lutz.

Join Sherlock Holmes in his adventure to find a criminal trying to exterminate the family of Baskerville, a family haunted by a legendary curse. The mystery involves a strange legend involving a beautiful country girl, a wicked man and a huge hellish-hound. The legend dates back generations, but the hound is still seen by the town’s people, and its frightening cry is still heard coming across the moor.

Considered by many to be one of the greatest “Detective Mysteries” ever written, this Sherlock Holmes adventure will undoubtedly take the boredom out of language learning!

Formatted in German & English (Deutsch und Englisch)! Stories compiled into our DLR format serve as an excellent tool to aid you in developing the ability to “think” in German. With the English text coupled with the corresponding German translation, you’re able to comprehend, precisely, the ideas being conveyed.
The key to mastering any foreign language is to develop the ability to “think” in that new language. A Dual Language Reader is an excellent tool for helping you to do exactly that!
