benevolentruler's review against another edition
mysterious
reflective
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? No
I read a lot of golden age mysteries but this one in particular did not work for me. A lot of the language and characterizations will be jarring to modem sensibilities. (When reading I reluctantly searched "was PD James homophobic").
