Undeceptions with John Dickson

CHAPTER

The Atheist on My Hands

In view of your findings I cannot understand why you should write a play based on a pack of lies. Yours faithfully, L.T. Duff Esquire. The correspondence doesn't end there and there are letters back and forth before Duff asks for a few suggestions of literature that might help him understand what Sayers and her ilk find so enchanting about the Christian faith. Can you tell me about your specific favourite things that she wrote? Maybe one of her more sort of theological or Christian books? You're as indignantly Dorothy Elsares. Ouch! Dorothy! That sounds like a mid-20th century Twitter spat.
