Why French fans are claiming Sherlock Holmes as one of their own

Plus, David Malouf's Remembering Babylon wins the world richest prize for a single work of fiction in English; John Grisham's novel, The Runaway Jury; and the scientific prize-winner, Plague's Progress: A Social History of Man and Disease by Arno Karlen.
