Mormons like to make a big fuss about how AC Doyle apologized for the way he treated them in his books. Given I know a bunch, it seems like he nailed it. Anyways, fun if predictable read. Really enjoy Victorian stories.
Stories from the 1800s are quite something. They've done a lot to establish tropes and habits in our modern literature, so it's always a fun read to check how they've handled the topics back then.
I haven't read Doyle but I've had a go at the classics like Frankenstein, Dracula, a bunch of Poe's works and a bit or Arthur Machen too. And the odd old novel from my country too.
I love the Enlightenment/Victorian era settings. Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell is an excellent book set in the period. The Egyptian is a great Finnish book. I’d love recommendations on other that have good English translations as my Finnish is poor.
As far as I'm aware, Finnish literature seems to be quite sparse on that time period, though I'm not well informed on the topic at all. The Seven Brothers and Unkown Soldier are perhaps some of the most well known Finnish novels, but I haven't read the first and found the second to be incredibly tedious.
All of the Moomin books are pretty neat though, they're very, very different from the rest of the Finnish literature that's stayed in people's minds.
