Striding Folly

Three Lord Peter Wimsey Mysteries

De: Dorothy L. Sayers

Narrado por: Ian Carmichael

Three perplexing puzzles - and three inimitable Wimsey solutions - told with wit, humor, and suspense. Narrator Ian Carmichael, the quintessential Lord Peter, provides great entertainment with his talented performance of these three stories.

In "Striding Folly", a frightening dream provides a haunting premonition. A house numbered 13 is in a street of even numbers, and a dead man was never alive in "The Haunted Policeman." And "Talboys" sees Lord Peter's own children accused of theft.

Sweet. His author really loves Lord Peter.

He’s brilliant, suave, debonaire, and has a wicked sense of fun. Practically perfect in every way.

Total enjoyment

I especially enjoyed the last short story as I’ve read the previous wimsey books so I know their back story

Brilliant and witty

Few authors can entertain us both in our youth and our later years. FABULOUS.
ENJOY

Delightful!!

I felt like I was catching up with old friends.
It was wonderful to see how Harriet maintains her literary life while watching over a brood of children.
Lord Peter glows as a father and lives an enchanted existence through and with his eldest son.
Bunter though in a much diminished capacity is still available for carrying out services that are so not ordinary.
Missed Lord Peter's mother. I love that character.

Settled Pleasure

I may enjoy Dorothy Sayers’ short stories even more than her novels. You get Lord Peter’s trademark wit, acumen and literary allusions, plus an unexpected resolution, all in less than an hour.

In this case, you also get Ian Carmichael, the man whom, for those of us who grew up watching Masterpiece Theater, simply is Lord Peter Wimsey.
