Colours in the Canon

29 minutes

 “Our own colours, green and white.” [WIST]   Yes, the circle was red, the study was scarlet and the pips were orange. But there are so many other colors (or colours) to explore in the Sherlock Holmes stories.   Conan Doyle did a masterful job of using color to give us a vivid sense of the settings. But more than that, what does his use of various colors tell us? It's just a Trifle.           Find Trifles wherever you listen to podcasts:  Listen to Sherlock Holmes: Trifles      Have you left us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts yet?
