It’s Budapest, early 20th century. Oswold is spending the summer at a language school, whilst Imre, a Hungarian calvary officer, is on leave. In the hustle and bustle of a café nestled deep in the city, the two men meet. As their companionship grows in the most unlikely of circumstances, their story is about to carve its own ending...At a time when society was less than kind to the gay community, Edward Prime-Stevenson’s psychological romance weaves a beautifully unexpected tale. Written under the pseudonym of Xavier Mayne, ‘Imre’ marks a turning point in LGBTQ+ literature. The openly gay love story is perfect for fans of ‘Call Me by Your Name’ with of Timothée Chalamet.Edward Prime-Stevenson, pseudonym of Xavier Mayne (1858-1942), was an American writer, journalist and author. Celebrated today as having written the first openly gay novel with a happy ending, his work spans early YA novels such as ‘The White Cockades: An Incident in the "Forty-five"' and ‘Left to Themselves: Being the Ordeal of Philip and Gerald.’ In 1908, Prime-Stevenson published the nonfiction book ‘The Intersexes’; a comprehensive analysis and defence of homosexuality to date. Today, he is remembered as having marked a turning point in English literature and remains an outstanding observer of the early 20th century LGBT scene.

First published in 1881 ‘The Gully of Bluemansdyke’ is a collection of seven short stories from the much-loved author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The stories are set all over the world, from Australia to Scotland and Budapest. Full of adventure, excitement and even the paranormal, tales in this collection include ‘My Friend the Murderer’, ‘The Silver Hatchet’ and ‘That Little Square Box’.Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a British author, best known as the creator of the world-famous detective Sherlock Holmes. Born in Edinburgh, he was educated in England and Austria before studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh. It was during his time at university that Doyle began writing short stories, submitting them to magazines and journals. His first Sherlock Holmes novel, ‘A Study in Scarlet’ was written in just three weeks and published in 1887 to favourable reviews, and more Sherlock adventures followed. By 1893, Doyle was growing tired of Sherlock and attempted to kill him off in the story ‘The Final Problem’, but public outcry caused him to resurrect the famous detective. He featured in a total of 56 short stories and four novels along with his trusty sidekick Dr Watson and made Doyle one of the best-paid authors of the time. The stories have been adapted multiple times; most recently in the successful BBC series ‘Sherlock’ starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. Later literary works included the Professor Challenger series which began with ‘The Lost World’, in which Challenger sets out to find evidence of prehistoric life. The book inspired numerous adaptations, including the films ‘Jurassic Park’ and ‘The Lost World’. In later life Doyle became captivated by the world of spiritualism and the occult and published non-fiction works about his beliefs including ‘The Coming of the Fairies’. Arthur Conan Doyle died at home in 1930.

Virtur prófessor finnst myrtur við þrep Háskólans í Búdapest og við tekur ævintýranleg atburðarás sem daðrar bæði við fantasíu og vísindaskáldskap. Óvenjuleg glæpasaga úr smiðju höfundar Sherlock Holmes.Silfuröxin er smásaga er birtist upphaflega í jólaútgáfu tímaritsins London Society árið 1883.Skotinn Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (1859-1930), var læknir að mennt en varði tíma sínum í skrif á meðan hann beið eftir sjúklingum á læknastofu sinni. Doyle endaði svo með að leggja læknasloppinn á hilluna, í þágu bókmenntanna. Hann er þekktastur fyrir glæpasögur sínar um einkaspæjarann sígilda, Sherlock Holmes, sem mörkuðu tímamót í þeirra glæpasagnahefð sem við þekkjum í dag. Doyle var afkastamikill rithöfundur og kom víða við og telja skrif hans meðal annars til fantasíu, vísindaskáldskapar, leikrita, ljóða og fræðirita.
