{"product_id":"agatha-christie-first-lady-of-crime","title":"Agatha Christie: First Lady of Crime","description":"Agatha Christie was not only the biggest selling writer of detective stories the world has ever known, she was also a mystery in herself, giving only the rarest interviews, declining absolutely to become any sort of public figure, and a mystery too in the manner in which she achieved her astonishing success.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nH R F Keating, a crime novelist and respected reviewer of crime fiction, brought together a dozen distinguished writers from both sides of the Atlantic to throw light on this double mystery. Some analyse the art itself; some explain the reasons for her success, not just the books, but also in film and theatre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe approaches are penetrating, affectionate, enthusiastic, analytical, funny - even critical. Together, they give an almost unique insight into the life and work of the First Lady of Crime.","brand":"Weidenfeld \u0026 Nicolson","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42982125862992,"sku":"9781474619448B","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/fr\/products\/agatha-christie-first-lady-of-crime","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
