Críticas
In time of dire and immediate trouble, on might well call upon a Sherlock Holmes for a quick solution to one's trials. But for the balm that reassures one about surviving the vicissitudes of life, one could do no better than to anchor onto a Lord Peter Wimsey. -- Elisabeth George * from introduction to In the Teeth of the Evidence * The books chronicling Wimsey's adventures remain models of their kind -- Barry Forshaw * from introduction to Five Red Herrings * Be warned . . . once you make friends with Wimsey you'll want to get better acquainted -- Christopher Fowler * from introduction to Lord Peter Views the Body *

As well as her popular Lord Peter Wimsey series, she wrote several religious plays, but considered her translations of Dante's Divina Commedia to be her best work. She died in 1957. www.sayers.org.uk
