I admit that there is not a single Dorothy Sayers which I do NOT like, but I think this one is especially good. The mystery is satisfyingly tangled, readers of the drawn-out Wimsey-Vane romance finally get some satisfaction, and the book contains one of the funniest scenes in all of the Wimsey books--who knew such fun could be had while cleaning soot out of the chimney??

The title "Busman's Honeymoon" is sort of a play on words. Look up busman's holiday in the dictionary. In fact it was a play that was also made into a movie "Haunted Honeymoon" (1940) starring Robert Montgomery and Constance Cummings. There are still some short stories and a novel finished by someone else; however Busman's Honeymoon is the last of the novel series containing Harriet Vane. Some of the short stories are "The Haunted Policeman" and "Talboys."
The book starts off with a series of letters from well-known friends of the couple, described previous in Dorothy L. Sayers' novels. They bring you up to date while describing the wedding of Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane. Some of the charters are just referenced yes it ought on and you will have to have read the previous novels for fuller detail.
The primary thrust of this novel is the relationship between Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane. With exquisite descriptions of their life and the English environment in which they live. Oh yes, there is also an intriguing mystery for the couple to solve. However the mystery does not overshadow the rest of the story.
One of the most important overlooked items in most descriptions of this book is the expanded explanation of the history and relationship of Bunter to Lord Peter.

This has got to be one of the absolute best mysteries ever. The Nine Tailors was good but this one is so complete. So satisfying in every way. There is the culmination of Wimsey's long-suffering courtship of Harriet. There is the beauty of their expressions of love to one another. There is the mystery. Who killed the dude in the basement? Was it an accident? The climax and conclusion are extremely satisfying. Get this book! And every Sayers book you can find!

The happy culmination of all the Peter and Harriet books. The author calls this a love story with "detective interruptions," a perfect description. Lesen Sie weiter...

Busman's Honeymoon
The mystery, as always with Dorothy L. Sayers, was good but not being a linguist, I didn't appreciate the amount of french that was included.
Veröffentlicht am 25. März 2000 von Elizabeth Bridgham
The culmination of the three previous Harriet Vane novels.
Dorothy L. Sayers' "Busman's Honeymoon" can be considered her finest "all inclusive" Lord Peter Wimsey novel. Lesen Sie weiter...
