Edward D. Hoch - Doctor Sam Hawthorne (EQMM)

Posted by Anson (Bob) Roberts on November 25, 2014 at 9:27pm

As part of their monthly podcast, Ellery Queen mystery magazine has undertaken to feature dramatizations of the Dr. Hawthorne puzzlers by Edward D, Hoch. Hoch, is, of course, the dean of the mystery short story.

I've uploaded the stories in a single RAR to the Whodunnit folder here.

As EQMM adds to the series, I'll replace the RAR file and leave a note here.

    Thanks so much! I always loved Hoch's stories in EQMM. It's lovely that they're doing this.

    I must confess that I have led a very sheltered life Bob, as I had until now; never heard of Edward D. Hoch. (I hear crys of shame, shame)

    I found an article in the Washington Post, link below which I found very informative.

    Thanks for these. I'm going to enjoy myself.

      I was introduced to Hoch's work years ago via a Christmas gift from a friend. He gave me a small collection of Hoch's stories called Six Impossible Things Before Breakfast.

      There were, as i recall, actually a dozen or so stories in the little volume. I do remember that I finished reading it by Boxing Day!

      These dramatizations are fun, but I suggest you find a copy of any of the Hoch anthologies and read the originals.
