Coles Agatha Christie's London: A Historical Guide to the Queen of Crime's Capital at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
London had a special place in Agatha Christie's heart. In her childhood, she would visit the capital to stay with her Auntie Grannie; as an adult, she owned several homes in the city. A re-occurring location in her stories, London is where Poirot and Hastings, and Tommy and Tuppence reside, and even Miss Marple cannot resist a trip up to town to do shopping in its department stores.
With this refreshing take on the Queen of Crime's connections to the city in both her life and writing, Tina Hodgkinson follows in Christie's footsteps, visiting her former homes, fashionable restaurants, luxury hotels and other London locations that she and her characters frequented. Discover the Apothecaries' Hall in the City of London, where Agatha sat her medical exams, the hospital she worked in during the Second World War, the former headquarters of the 'Detection Club' and the theatres, where her plays were performed.
Christie wrote about the capital in every decade of her extensive literary career, and this detailed but accessible compendium will delight Christie fans both old and new.
