This week, we're covering what T.S. Eliot called "the first, the longest, and the best of modern English detective novels." And who better to join us than self-confessed detective fiction fanboy, Alec Mouhibian, of Filthy Armenian Adventures podcast.

We discuss detective fiction's enduring appeal, the sensation novel, Wilkie Collins' bromance with Charles Dickens, the joys of the long sentence, and much more.
