Produktinformationen zu „Agatha Christie: An English Mystery “
A passionate and accomplished writer, Laura Thompson now turns her highly acclaimed biographical skills to Agatha Christie--arguably the greatest crime writer in the world. Thompson describes the Edwardian world in which Christie grew up; explores the relationships she had, including those with her two husbands and daughter; and investigates the mysteries still surrounding Christie's life--including her disappearance in 1926. For the first time, Christie's six Mary Westmacott romance novels--written under a pseudonym and highly revelatory about her hidden inner life--are fully studied in a biography. Agatha Christie is a mystery and writing about her is a detection job in itself. But, with access to all of Christie's letters, papers, and writing notebooks, as well as interviews with her grandson, daughter, son-in-law, and their living relations, Thompson is able to unravel not only the detailed workings of Christies detective fiction, but the truth behind her private life as well.
