About

Muriel Jaeger (1892–1969) was a British historian and social critic (Before Victoria). Her science fiction books include The Question Mark (1926), an ambiguous utopia that likely influenced Aldous Huxley; Hermes Speaks (1933); and Retreat From Armageddon (1936). Jaeger attended Oxford with Dorothy L. Sayers. She encoraged Sayers to write her first novel, Whose Body? Sayers, in turn, dedicated the book to her, using Jaeger's college nickname, Jim: "To Jim: If it had not been for your brutal insistence, Lord Peter would never have staggered through to the end of this enquiry."
