The importance of the original Sherlock Holmes stories for English fiction writing cannot be overstated. Much of what we think of as modern crime fiction depends upon principles and writing devices that were employed for the first time in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s writing of the Canon.
The collection of short stories tied together by a single main character is the most prominent of these devices. These days, it is not at all uncommon to have series of novels or short stories that all revolve around the same character(s), but the Canon is one of the first instances of short narratives that are independent of one another but feature the same main protagonist (or indeed two protagonists). Much of modern crime fiction depends on this device and is therefore heavily indebted to the Canon.
