4.0 out of 5 stars A successful pastiche of an Agatha Christie novel about Agatha Christie, July 6, 2007
By 
L. E. Cantrell (Vancouver, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Agatha (Mass Market Paperback)
On December 3, 1926, Agatha Christie disappeared. There was an immediate and enormous media frenzy. A few months earlier, she had published her seventh book, "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd," which had made her the most famous mystery writer in the world and the true successor to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

This book combines the few facts known from public records and from Christie's famously uninformative autobiography with some pleasingly low-minded speculations by Ms. Tynan. It is a mystery novel about Agatha Christie written in a reasonable approximation of Agatha Christie's own style.

Agatha returned to her home and to Archie Christie, her unfaithful husband, well before Christmas.

She said she had lost her memory.

Four stars.

NOTE: In 1979, this novel was made into a feature film with the same title. It starred Vanessa Redgrave as Agatha, Timothy Dalton as the philandering Archie and Dustin Hoffman as a fictional investigative reporter. It's well worth watching.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book.Very insightful, January 2, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Agatha (Hardcover)
Agatha is a very emoionally demanding and strong willed woman who frightens her husband Archie. He probably grew up with a emotionally domineering mother who made him feel inadequeate. he doesn't like Agatha because she makes he feel bad.

He would much rather marry Nancy because she is plain and bland and doesn't threaten him. he likes obedience.
