	The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club is a 1928 novel by Dorothy L. Sayers, her fourth featuring Lord Peter Wimsey.
		The "unpleasantness" is that a 90-year-old member of this men's club in London, General Fentiman, has died in one of its armchairs, and no one noticed for hours that he was dead.
		The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club was adapted for television in 1972, as part of a series starring Ian Carmichael as Lord Peter.

		The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club Review: When an elderly gentleman, ensconced in a winged back leather chair close up to the fire and apparently reading the "Times", is found to be dead the word for this event, occurring as it does in a respectable London club in the 1920s, is "unpleasantness".
		When Lord Peter Wimsey investigates further and discovers that the death is actually murder, it is still not proper, in the Bellona Club, to abandon the euphemism "unpleasantness".
		After describing the opening scene in the Bellona Club with great care and effect, Miss Sayers rarely thereafter gives a thought to sketching in details of time, place, action or surroundings.

	Lord Peter Wimsey - The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club DVD Review
		Ian Carmichael stars in his signature role as the stylish, cultured, and erudite Wimsey, whose investigation into the death of General Fentiman is as irresistible as "poking sticks into a peaceful and mysterious-looking pond to see what was on the bottom." Fentiman died in his favorite chair at the staid Bellona Club.
		As the very British title suggests, this is not a crime thriller to set the pulse racing (the discovery of Fentiman's body is referred to as "something rather unpleasant").
		But as the mystery unfolds over the course of 180 minutes (and 4 volumes), it is as captivating as a good late-night read.

	Planet Peschel's Annotation of "The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club" by Dorothy L. Sayers
		Excerpts from "The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club" are copyrighted 1928 by Dorothy Leigh Sayers Fleming.
		It is the name for the Roman Goddess of war, either the wife or sister of Mars, and an appropriate name for a story set in a club in which so many of its members were veterans.
		The Ancient Order of Froth-Blowers was a popular service club during the 1920s, sort of like the Rotary and Lions and Elks, only centered around the more convivial activities in a pub.

		The Bellona Club was as lively as a Victorian funeral parlor with its potted ferns, pukka sahibs, and marble mementoes of the Empire.
		The hush of respectability was so unbroken that ninety-year-old General Fentiman lay in his chair for hours...before anyone noticed he was quite dead.

		However what makes this book fascinating for me is the deeply convincing contemporary portrait of upper and middle class post World War 1 Britain.
		The Edwardian afternoon still lingers on for those too old to have fought and the Gentlemans club which forms the backdrop for much of this book remains a refuge from a rapidly changing world.
		But for the "lucky" ones who return from the trenches their experiences haunt them.
