Haudan takainen elämä

by Arthur Conan Doyle

Mitä ihmisen minuudelle tapahtuu kuoleman jälkeen? Voivatko kuolleet kommunikoida elävien ihmisten kanssa – ja jos voivat, niin miten? Ovatko kummitukset vain satuolentoja vai totisinta totta?Kirjailija Arthur Conan Doyle, joka tunnetaan erityisesti Sherlock Holmes -kirjoistaan, oli kiinnostunut myös yliluonnollisuudesta ja spiritismistä, ja "Haudantakainen elämä" on Doylen syväluotaava katsaus aiheeseen. Kirjassa Doyle kertoo myös omakohtaisista kokemuksistaan spiritismiin.-

About the author

Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle was a Scottish writer and physician. He created the character Sherlock Holmes in 1887 for A Study in Scarlet, the first of four novels and fifty-six short stories about Holmes and Dr. Watson. The Sherlock Holmes stories are milestones in the field of crime fiction.

Doyle was a prolific writer. In addition to the Holmes stories, his works include fantasy and science fiction stories about Professor Challenger, and humorous stories about the Napoleonic soldier Brigadier Gerard, as well as plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction, and historical novels. One of Doyle's early short stories, "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement" (1884), helped to popularise the mystery of the brigantine Mary Celeste, found drifting at sea with no crew member aboard.
