Towards Zero

Towards Zero pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in English with another billion in 100 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time and in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels written under the name of Mary Westmacott.

Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mystery Affair of Styles, was written towards the end of the First World War, in which she served as a VAD. In it she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective who was destined to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. It was eventually published by The Bodley Head in 1920.

In 1926, after averaging a book a year, Agatha Christie wrote her masterpiece. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the first of her books to be published by Collins and marked the beginning of an author-publisher relationship which lasted for 50 years and well over 70 books. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was also the first of Agatha Christie's books to be dramatised - under the name Alibi - and to have a successful run in London's West End. The Mousetrap, her most famous play of all, opened in 1952 and is the longest-running play in history.

Agatha Christie was made a Dame in 1971. She died in 1976, since when a number of books have been published posthumously: the bestselling novel Sleeping Murder appeared later that year, followed by her autobiography and the short story collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, Problem at Pollensa Bay and While the Light Lasts. In 1998 Black Coffee was the first of her plays to be novelised by another author, Charles Osborne.

What is the connection between a failed suicide attempt, a wrongful accusation of theft against a schoolgirl, and the romantic life of a famous tennis player?

To the casual observer, apparently nothing. But when a houseparty gathers at Gull's Point, the seaside home of an elderly widow, earlier events come to a dramatic head.

As superintendent Battle discovers, it is all part of a carefully paid plan - for murder...

读后感

评分

前面的50%内容情节进展缓慢,看似零散,没有主线。有弃读的念头,又感觉作者不至于low到这个程度。耐心看到后面,高潮一浪一浪,还不错。 事后,再回头看前面的章节,埋下了不少伏笔,奠定了基调。虽然会觉得稍微有点咯嗦,不过整体看来还是一部不错的小说,构思奇特

我觉得吧,所有主角非波洛,非马普尔的小说,要么奇异精致,灵气尽显,要么就是读完之后吐出隔夜饭的极品。 这本书的开头光芒四射,情节总体而言也算上乘。 非要挑出个缺点,就是凶手太明显,就差没印在封面上了,尤其要是你读过不少阿加莎其他作品的话。

一本讲述阿婆侦探小说创作理念的书,这也是那篇看似无关的“序”存在的目的: “我喜欢好的侦探故事,但是它们打一开头就是错的。它们都以谋杀为开端,而谋杀应该是结尾。故事其实在那之前早就开始了,有时甚至可以追溯到多年以前,是各种各样的原因和一系列的事件把某些人在某...

远被低估。 “零点”这个概念在阿婆之前的作品早有体现,在这本书中更是发挥到了极致,这是由一个阿婆写了不下十次的三角关系发展成的精彩故事。有人说这本只有布局有点看头,我完全不同意。看阿婆的书真正乐趣并不是靠推理或臆测得到答案,而是读者不断推断、怀疑的过程,你会...

Had so much potentials up till hour zero. Must you turn it into a romatic melodrama?

评分

It may be just by being somewhere - not doing anything - just by being at a certain place at a certain time ... Just by doing that accomplish something terribly important - perhaps even without knowing what it was.

去北京的高铁上读到结局,精彩的故事。读过的第三本英文小说,第一本阿加莎。

Love is easy to be turned to hatred. 后面证据部分有点牵强。场景画面感还可以。人不能总是那么光鲜,总有点黑暗点。
