About this episode

Brenna and Joe discuss Nancy Springer's Enola Holmes mystery series, focusing on its themes of women's fashion and historical context.

Brenna and Joe dip a toe into Nancy Springer's mystery series with the first Enola Holmes Mystery : The Case of the Missing Marquess (2006) This Middle grade text is deft, but surprisingly deep, particularly the way Springer uses women's fashion as a central component of the narrative. Plus: sexist Sherlock Holmes and Mycroft; a bad mother; and the novel's subtle, but specific historical/political context. Wanna connect with the show?
