Agatha: The Real Life of Agatha Christie (Paperback)

Staff Reviews
If you are a fan of Agatha Christie this graphic novel is for you. One of the greatest mysteries about Agatha Christie is what happened during a 10 day period when she went missing & that is where this graphic novel starts. I really enjoyed reading this because it was a cleverly told biography that brings her to life and also her most famous characters. One certain Belgium detective is very chatty to say the least. The novel moves quickly and I wished it was longer because I highly enjoyed this look into Dame Christie's long and interesting life.

Agatha Christie is one of my favorite mystery writers. Yet despite years of reading her work, I recently realized I knew next to nothing about her as a person. Unfortunately, due to the ridiculous amount of fiction I prefer to read, I don't usually have the time (or attention span) for written biographies. When I saw this appear on our shelves, the life of Agatha Christie in graphic novel form, I snagged it right away. This biography is engaging, it shows all the major events in her life in a creative and page-turner way. Going in blind, I learned so much about her; she was a pretty badass woman for her time. Even though she married a couple times, her writing and career were her most prominent passions throughout her long life. This biography appeals to long-time Christie fans with mental narrative appearances by Poirot and Marple, but it will also capture the attention of people who have yet to read her brilliant work.
