Biographies of Dorothy Sayers have been published already, but this is the most authoritative by far. * Penelope Fitzgerald, Observer *
This well written, beautifully organised and perceptive biography brings both the woman and writer alive for me as no previous study. * P.D. James *
A tinglingly vivid portrait of a brilliant, quirky, combative, energetic, comical and fascinating woman...suberb biography. * Piers Brendon, Daily Mail *
The achievement of this lucid and absorbing biography is to ake you wish you had known a woman who could inspire bishops in a dozen languages and giggle like a girl. * Frances Fyfield, Sunday Express *
Barbara Reynolds' achievement is to make us not only admire but like this astonishing woman. * Jenny Uglow, Independent on Sunday *
