The Mystery of Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie is the best-selling author of all time as well as the playwright of the longest-running stage play in history. How did a wealthy, upper-middle class girl in early 20th century Britain emerge to write the most popular mysteries of all time? What is this spell that her stories and characters weave over us so that her books still sell by the millions and are adapted into movies, TV shows, comic books, and video games nearly 40 years after her death? And what is the truth behind the real life mystery of Christie’s own 11-day disappearance in 1926?

Join librarian and Christie fan Amy Campbell on Tuesday, October 28, at 7:30 p.m. to explore the fascinating life of Miss Marple and Poirot’s famous creator. This program is free and open to the public. For more information, please call Amy at 232-1263 ext. 106.
