How did I not know this??
Oct. 5th, 2009 05:09 pmIn Borders the other day, I came across a shelf of Georgette Heyer's mystery novels in nice bright new covers. I was glancing at them without much interest -- nice bright new covers notwithstanding, I'd only heard of Heyer as a writer of historical romances that didn't sound like my cup of tea -- and then this met my eye:
"Miss Heyer's characters and dialogue are an abiding delight to me... I have seldom met people to whom I have taken so violent a fancy from the word 'Go'." -- Dorothy L. Sayers.
Well, that's it, then. I now have to read every one of them.
