Download Dorothy L. Sayers: A Careless Rage for Life AudioBook Free
Known to millions as the inventor of Lord Peter Wimsey and the best-selling writer of a dozen detective books, Dorothy Leigh Sayers was in reality a complex female - moved, she said, by "a careless rage for life." It really is this sophisticated Sayers, brilliant college student, controversial apologist, witty, bawdy, intolerant of fools - he female "terrified of emotion" - who's revealed in this new biography. The development of Sayers' radio play on the life of Christ, The Man Given birth to to Be Ruler, lifted a storm of controversy. Reveling in the verbal challenge, pugnacious, tenacious, she nonetheless pursued the Religious faith not only as an intellectual godgame, but as the prominent force in her life. The Wimsey books' treatment of the designs of justice, guilt, abuse and the imperatives of personal responsibility reflect her beliefs.
