Over the course of her long, prolific career, Agatha Christie gave the world a wealth of ingenious whodunits and page-turning locked-room mysteries featuring Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot, and a host of other unforgettable characters.

Weigh Up Appertaining To Books Come, Tell Me How You Live

In archeology a tell or tel is an artificial mound formed from the accumulated remains of people living on the same site for hundreds or thousands of years. A classic tell looks like a low, truncated cone with a flat top and slopping sides, and can be up to 300 meters high. The mound rises as the mudbricks of buildings rapidly disintegrated. Many tells are to be found in the fertile areas of ancient Mesopotamia, the land between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, commonly labelled the cradle of

This was a joy to read!!! Im not really into biographies, preferring the world of fiction, yet this memoir from Agatha Christie was fascinating and extremely funny!Our beloved author has a brilliant sense of humour and comedy that shines through the pages. This was not a surprise since Ive seen this often in her crime mysteries. Here however it is much stronger. I loved hearing her true voice, describing the life she experienced on digs in Syria and Iraq with her husband, the renown

Not knowing much about Agatha Christie, I enjoyed this insight into her. I read every one of her books that my library had when I was 10-11 and haven't read one since. I often think I'd like to, just don't get around to it. I would especially like to read the two mentioned on the blurb as having been influenced by her travels, Murder in Mesopotamia and Appointment with Death.I liked all the characters she worked with: Michel with his 'economia' (buying 200 moulding oranges because they were so

Agatha Christie is one of my heroes.....her book The Body in the Library was my first ever grown up whodunnit .......I think I was eleven or twelve when I first read it, and I loved it.Ive never tired of her books, her wonderful creation Hercule Poirot is my favourite detective, closely followed by Miss Marple, but in actual fact, Ive enjoyed pretty much everything Ive read by her.........there have been very few that Ive thought below parr.Over the years, Ive discovered that there was more to

I picked this up at random in a thrift store about five years ago and it went onto the shelf, unread, until my latest plan for clearing out my massive TBR pile. I knew nothing about Agatha Christie's life except that she'd been married twice and there was that weird disappearance in the 1920s (and even that I only knew about from the Doctor Who episode). So learning that her husband was an archaeologist and that she'd been to Syria on digs with him was a surprise. This slim book details a couple

Me, sitting down to tea with Agatha Christie: Come, tell me how you live!'Agatha Christie: Quite beautifully, well within our extensive means, and with a gently comical yet frustratingly persistent servant problem.It's incredibly difficult to describe just how unpleasant this book was to read without making it sound like I detest it. I don't. It's enjoyable sometimes, and of course Christie writes lightly and well (who is honestly surprised by this?), but it is inescapably, depressingly of its

Come, Tell me how you live is Agatha Christie's invitation to the world to experience elements of her life after she married the famous archaeologist Max Mallowan. The title is a play on the word "Tell" which also means a man-made mound or hill constructed by the occupation of ancient civilisations (in Turkey we call them hoyuks). Christie, famed for her murder-mystery novels was greatly influenced by the ancient and modern cultures of the Middle East and a number of her literary set pieces were
