Subversive: Christ, Culture, and the Shocking Dorothy L. Sayers by Crystal Downing

4.0

I love Dorothy Sayers. She left an incredible legacy through her writing, one that is so relevant today. This was a thorough look at her numerous works, and I think it worked for me because I was so familiar with Sayers’s vast range of works - from Lord Peter to The Man Born to be King to her theological works. Hands down 5 stars for chapter five: The Politics of Religion, the Religion of Politics. This read more like an academic book most of the time, often repetitive to a fault, but I still came away with more of Sayers added to my list to read next. I also realized I prefer to read Sayers herself than read someone else talking about her.
