There is a persistent and incorrect idea, reinforced by countless film misrepresentations, that Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were always staid and dull British chaps of middle years (or older), with Holmes a spry, cranky, and impatient eccentric, and Watson a white-haired and portly Boobus Brittanicus, a la Nigel Bruce. Students of the true and Canonical Sherlock Holmes know this to be a falsehood. When we first meet them on January 1, 1881, Holmes is still 26 years old (although he will turn 27 in just a few days), and Watson, already a wounded war veteran, is only 28.

C'est à Londres, auprès de la France libre, qu'Albert Cohen apprend la mort de sa mère, à Marseille, en janvier 1943. Il est loin d'elle, sans possibilité même de lui faire un dernier adieu puisque les Allemands ont envahi la "zone libre" le 9 novembre 1942. La douleur submerge Albert Cohen. Il en naîtra presque immédiatement un texte admirable, "Un chant de mort", qu'il reprendra en 1953 et qui deviendra dans sa version définitive "Le Livre de ma mère".
