There are several things I had to work my way through, including changes in style where I thought Sayers was trying to present a lot of information in an amusing way. I also had to press on past some offensive attitudes that may have been acceptable in the 1920s. Makes me wonder what we are writing today that will make our grandchildren cringe.
