Episode 5: UNNATURAL DEATH, part 1

Published: Dec. 2, 2019, 8 a.m.

b'In which Charis and Sharon discuss UNNATURAL DEATH, the third Lord Peter Wimsey mystery. We talk about how Lord Peter learns of this "crime of crimes," where a murder doesn\'t seem to have been committed at all. We also cover the issue of "surplus women" in the early 20th century, the prominence of spinsters in the book, the introduction of a favorite character, the novel\'s portrayal of lesbians, and what happens when the detective\'s actions lead to an innocent\'s death. This episode covers up through chapter 10 of UNNATURAL DEATH and does not spoil the whodunnit. For further shownotes and the episode transcript, please visit https://asmywimseytakesme.com.'
