Someone on Tumblr decided that Harriet Vane, looking at people at a concert & judging if they're enjoying the music "correctly", is the worst sort of snob.

At #GaudyNight. Dorothy L Sayers this is not. Captains of industry in the LMH Bar bopping to #SmalltownBoy
The #PeteHegseth security breach reminded me of this from #GaudyNight:
"If we do not penalize false statements made in error, we open up the way for false statements by intention."
I consumed many 'Brilliant Classics' in 2024, mostly from Agatha Christie for #ReadChristie2024 - there were also gems from Anthony Trollope (#PhineasRedux in the Palliser series especially), #GaudyNight by Dorothy L. Sayers & #TheCamomileLawn by Mary Wesley. All highly recommended! 😁
