Description

Meet Agatha Christie, the best-selling novelist in human history. Her writing career spanned six decades, during which time she wrote 66 crime novels, 6 non-crime novels (including romances), and over 150 short stories. Not only was she a phenomenally successful novelist, but she is also the most successful female playwright of all time - her play “The Mousetrap” is the longest-running show in history.

As you learn about Christie’s experiences and her storied career, you will better understand how the circumstances of her life shaped her work and vice versa. Along the way, consider some fascinating questions:

  • How did becoming a nurse and an apothecary’s assistant influence her crime stories?
  • Would her literary career have been different if she had not been a part of well-to-do British society?
  • Why did Christie disappear at the height of her fame - and will we ever know the whole truth about that fateful event?

Agatha Christie’s works have been read by millions and have been adapted into film, television, plays, and more since her debut novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, introduced the world to Hercule Poirot in 1920. Her famous detectives, Poirot and Miss Marple, have become beloved staples of pop culture around the world. With such a legacy, it can sometimes be surprising how much of her life remains a mystery to her readers. In The Mysterious Case of Agatha Christie, you will get an intimate glimpse of her private life, investigate the secrets of her greatest novels, and perhaps solve a few mysteries yourself.

Lots of interesting details.

Really enjoyed this book. Even though I have already read many of Christie’s books, I learnt many new information.

Agatha Christie

I found this to be extremely informative and interesting. I've deducted a star because of the shade the author throws at Tommy and Tuppence. They are two of my favorite Christie characters.

I loved it!

I've recently been immersing myself in Agatha Christie classics in audiobook format, and I find this a perfect accompaniment to that endeavour. I think it will give me an even greater appreciation of her work. Maureen Corrigan has done a fabulous job writing and narrating the course. I think it'd be great fun to be one of her students! Thanks, Ms. Corrigan.
