Description

Janet Morgan s definitive and authorised biography of Agatha Christie, with a new retrospective foreword by the author.


Agatha Christie (1890-1976), the world s bestselling author, is a public institution. Her creations, Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, have become fiction s most legendary sleuths and her ingenuity has captured the imagination of generations of readers. But although she lived to a great age and was prolific, she remained elusively shy and determinedly private.


Given sole access to family papers and other protected material, Janet Morgan s definitive biography unravels Agatha Christie s life, work and relationships, creating a revealing and faithfully honest portrait. The book has delighted readers of Christie s detective stories for more than 30 years with its clear view of her career and personality, and this edition includes a new foreword by the author reflecting on the longevity of Agatha Christie s extraordinary success and popularity.
