Josephine TEY, Miss Pym Disposes.
Par l'autrice de "Daughter of Time," sans doute le meilleur roman policier classique jamais écrit (si vous ne l'avez pas lu, foncez ! - "La Fille du temps", jadis publié chez 10/18) .

Happy Birthday Debbie Harry #BOTD
Before getting her music career going with Blondie, she worked various odd jobs. One of them as cover model for this 1971 Berkley Medallion paperback reissue of Josephine Tey's classic 1948 mystery novel.

I've just finished Josephine Tey's "The Franchise Affair" and have been struck by its conservatism. This excellent Sarah Waters essay spotlights some of the fears and resentments seething in the book.
I would recommend "The Franchise Affair" not just as a gripping detective story but also as an insight into the post WW2 Tory mind.
