Arthur & George By Julian Barnes

“Arthur & George” is a historical novel by Julian Barnes, first published in 2005. It’s a compelling blend of fact and fiction that explores the lives of two very different men: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the famous creator of Sherlock Holmes, and George Edalji, a real-life solicitor of Indian descent who was wrongfully convicted of a series of animal mutilations in Edwardian England.
