Hi, Steven!
SH> JM> Contrast this with the development of the relationship between Lord
SH> JM> Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane over the four HV books by Dorothy
SH> JM> Sayers and the difference becomes very clear.  And sure, if you
SH> JM> compare Perry and Sayers, then it's quite fair to say that there is
SH> JM> no development in Perry.
SH>I've always thought that what happens between Lord Peter and Harriet
SH>happens rather quickly but there's certainly character development.  And I
SH>do re-read those four again and again.
Actually, I got the distinct impression that there is about four years
between the first and last of the Harriet Vane novels.  Lord Peter
certainly made up HIS mind rapidly but Harriet Vane certainly didn't.
Anyone else got an opinion on this?
Best,
