Beautiful Caroline Crale as convicted of poisoning her husband, yet there were five other suspects: Philip Blake (the stockbroker) who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist) who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcee) who had roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess) who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister) who cried 'wee wee wee' all the way home.
It is sixteen years later, but Poirot just can't get that nursery rhyme out of his mind...
'Mrs. Christie as usual puts a ring through the reader's nose and leads them to one of her smashing last-minute showdowns.'
--Observer
Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in English with another billion in 100 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time and in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels written under the name of Mary Westmacott.
Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mystery Affair of Styles, was written towards the end of the First World War, in which she served as a VAD. In it she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective who was destined to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. It was eventually published by The Bodley Head in 1920.
In 1926, after averaging a book a year, Agatha Christie wrote her masterpiece. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the first of her books to be published by Collins and marked the beginning of an author-publisher relationship which lasted for 50 years and well over 70 books. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was also the first of Agatha Christie's books to be dramatised - under the name Alibi - and to have a successful run in London's West End. The Mousetrap, her most famous play of all, opened in 1952 and is the longest-running play in history.
Agatha Christie was made a Dame in 1971. She died in 1976, since when a number of books have been published posthumously: the bestselling novel Sleeping Murder appeared later that year, followed by her autobiography and the short story collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, Problem at Pollensa Bay and While the Light Lasts. In 1998 Black Coffee was the first of her plays to be novelised by another author, Charles Osborne.

知己,同你一樣,我也猜錯瞭結局,隻是不知咱倆是不是錯也錯的有默契
評分一個年輕的姑娘,試圖介入年長者的婚姻,卻失敗瞭。這個男人是個藝術傢。讓人悲傷的故事。好在這男人是個自我又傲慢的藝術傢,而這個小姑娘,貌美放縱,將青春放在手上燃燒,仿佛世界都要臣服於她。羅生門的結構,談人性多過詭計,維多利亞時代的人生哲學,以及格言大全。這些都很好,但我還是覺得很悲傷。
評分五名當事人的口述加手寫記錄…有點點囉嗦,但是通過不同人的視角塑造齣一位非常完美的女性形象,雖然很多人說硃麗葉形容當年那個年輕的女孩,我認為她不配,Caroline纔是永恒的女主角。
評分聖誕晚會交換禮物得到的書。凶手竟沒猜對????

这两天读了阿婆的《五只小猪》(Five Little Pigs)。作为阿婆的多年慢热粉,从一年看一本,逐减为数年不碰,不是不懊恼的。但也不无佳处,检察一番大侦探波罗的书列,还有许多发展空间,更无妨再试探马普尔小姐,也许我终究能避过他最后那个案子,不忍心到底吧。 《五只小猪...
評分 評分2014年9月15日,读完了阿加莎·克里斯蒂的《啤酒谋杀案》,共11.6万字。 一个21岁的小姑娘突然一天找到了大侦探波洛,告诉他,自己的母亲因谋杀了父亲被判终身监禁,在狱中一年以后死去。死前给女儿写了一封信,信中说自己是无辜的。如今,小姑娘已经可以...
評分我曾经一直认为这是一个令人发指的故事,无论是表面上的真相,还是被波洛先生最终揭示出来的真相,都是令人难以接受的。爱人相残,最悲惨的还不完全是生命的消逝,而是我们原本就已经感觉飘忽的爱情,在动荡的世界里,不但不能成为我们心灵的归宿,反而成为了我们生命的终结者...
