About Dorothy L. Sayers

Dorothy L. Sayers (1893-1957) is best known as the author of twelve detective novels, most of which feature her aristocratic and literary-minded sleuth Lord Peter Wimsey. She was a co-founder of the Detection Club, an important critic during the golden age of detective fiction, and a major champion of ambitious crime fiction. After her last crime novel was published in 1937, she dedicated herself to writing plays, religious broadcasting, and translation, including a major new version of Dante's Divine Comedy.
