4.0 out of 5 stars Light reading to supplement Christie's books., January 5, 2007
By Algae "algae429" (Monroe, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bedside, Bathtub & Armchair Companion to Agatha Christie (Paperback)
This book isn't anything more than it says it is - a Companion to the works of Agatha Christie. It's several short essays that explains the plot of each book (but never gives away the ending) and has several companion essays that tell the story of Christie's life and life in England while she was alive. There are essays on how people dressed, how servants were treated, how Christie treated lower-class characters in her books. There are essays delving into the psychology of our favorite detectives.

It's meant to be picked up and read in short bursts. It provides a lot of information in quick bits.

It's by no mean a comprehensive biography of Christie. Several essays are much better than others. But it's a nice little companion for Christie fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Companion!, June 18, 2005
By kaduzy (Ithaca, NY) - See all my reviews
  
This review is from: The Bedside, Bathtub & Armchair Companion to Agatha Christie (Paperback)
A must for any Christie fan, as it helps you sort out the often confusing array of books by summarizing each of them without giving the endings away, and includes all the title variations that can trip die hard fans up as they accidentally read or purchase the same book twice or more!

This book doesn't hold anything back either! For one thing, it reveals that the original title of "And Then There Were None" (which can also be found as "Ten Little Indians") was actually "Ten Little NIGGERS"! The poem in the book was the same thing, and there's actually cover art included. Now we have an older edition of this companion than the one pictured here, so it's possible that the publishers have cut back on some of the information available in it, but this is a FACT! Whether it changes your mind about Agatha Christie is up to you!
