I'm surprised that Conan Doyle was publishing Sherlock Holmes stories as late as 1927. I thought he had stopped long before that, since he hated the character.

- dagw 13y agoHe didn't really hate the character as much as he was tired of him and wanted to focus his time on writing what he considered more important works. He did try to stop writing Holmes stories in the middle of his career, and managed about 10 years before being forced back due to pressure from his publishers and the public.
