Recenzii
With well-established approaches to Christie alongside hitherto understudied or new(er) approaches, the Handbook can serve as a starting point into Christie Studies, while it also presents innovative interpretations and an impressive amount of thorough research to non-newcomers to Christie.
A thought provoking and stimulating read.
'Long known as crime fiction's best-seller and finest puzzler, Agatha Christie has recently been also recognized as a real social analyst. In The Bloomsbury Handbook twenty-one experts, including Val McDermid, give intriguingly varied accounts of Christie the world-aware searching novelist.'
