A review by ghoti
Unnatural Death by Dorothy L. Sayers

Not quite sure what I just read. There is a classic crime/detective story in there but the racism subplot was unnecessary, and a lot of the book seems to be dedicated to the apparently difficult question of why God made lesbians (because they’re good for society, better than men and generally a good example). Oh and religious bits ranging from snobbery (only good Anglo-Catholics appreciate a good lesbian apparently) to completely out of nowhere antisemitism. And the subplot about the distant cousin/Caribbean origin priest was almost completely unnecessary.

I will definitely not be rereading, I’m just deciding whether I think it’s worth putting back out there for someone else to read.
