The undisputed "Queen of Crime," Dame Agatha Christie (1890-1976)
is the bestselling novelist of all time. As the creator of immortal
detectives Hercule Poirot and Jane Marple, she continues to
enthrall readers around the world and is drawing increasing
attention from scholars, historians, and critics. But Christie
wrote far beyond Poirot and Marple. A varied life including war
work, archaeology, and two very different marriages provided the
backdrop to a diverse body of work. This encyclopedic companion
summarizes and explores Christie's entire literary output,
including the detective fiction, plays, radio dramas, adaptations,
and her little-studied non-crime writing. It details all published
works and key themes and characters, as well as the people and
places that inspired them, and identifies a trove of uncollected
interviews, articles, and unpublished material, including details
that have never appeared in print. For the casual reader looking
for background information on their favorite mystery to the
dedicated scholar tracking down elusive new angles, this companion
will provide the most comprehensive and up-to-date information.
