Agatha Christie
Book Description:Collins, London, 1977. Hard Cover. Book Condition: Good. Binding is somewhat loose, internally clean. Brown cloth with gilt to spine title.; without dust jacket . 542 pages and illustrated with numerous black and white photographs. The world’s best-selling author reveals her share of struggles. Yet her exuberance and her pure delight at life itself shine through on nearly every page. “One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is to have a happy childhood,’’ she writes in the book’s opening line.Happiness is a rare commodity - and among writers, it is even less prevalent, it seems. But Christie (born Agatha Miller in Devon, England, in 1890) seems to have approached life with a childlike openness and zest. This autobiography took Christie 15 years to write; she completed it when she was 75. “I have remembered, I suppose, what I wanted to remember,’’ she admits of her account. She concedes, “I do not know the whole Agatha.’’ ISBN: 00002160129
