    Miss Marple is far more than just a character invented by Agatha Christie. From her debut in the traumatic aftermath of Christie’s disappearance author and character were united in a bond that was literary and personal, public and private, open and submerged. Award-winning literary historian Peter Keating examines that bond in Agatha Christie and Shrewd Miss Marple, revealing the range and variety of the Miss Marple novels, linking them to Christie’s life and, in what is a highly unusual approach for a study of this most misunderstood of novelists, placing them tellingly within their historical context. Keating gives a positive account of Christie’s literary aims, draws attention to her creative interest in Freud and Shakespeare, and offers some challenging new interpretations of individual novels. Miss Marple herself emerges with a revitalized image and, as a bonus, a few mysteries about her personality and her famous home village of St. Mary Mead are unexpectedly solved.

    A revealing and witty new examination of how Agatha Christie became the world's most successful and popular female playwright, including details of never-before-published scripts and stories. Everyone knows that The Mousetrap is the world's longest-running play, but this first ever book dedicated to Agatha Christie as a playwright tells how Christie prevailed against the male-dominated establishment to be the only woman to have three plays in the West End at the same time and became the most popular and successful female playwright in the world. Author and theatre producer Julius Green has been given unprecedented access to archives in the UK and USA and has uncovered unpublished and unperformed plays, as well as previously unknown facts and correspondence. Agatha Christie was a skilful and accomplished stage writer, and this long-awaited book is a fascinating, funny and revealing tale that theatregoers and Agatha Christie fans won't want to miss
