内容简介

A facsimile first edition hardback of the Miss Marple books, published to mark the 75th anniversary of her first appearance and to celebrate her new-found success on television. When The Murder at the Vicarage was published in October 1930, little did the literary world realise that Agatha Christie, already famous for her early Poirot titles, was introducing a character who would become the best-loved female sleuth of all time. The 14 Marple books would appear at intervals over the next 49 years, with Miss Marple's Final Cases published in 1979, three years after Agatha's death. To mark the 75th anniversary of Miss Marple's first appearance, and to celebrate her renewed fortunes as a primetime television star, this collection of facsimile first editions will be the perfect way to enjoy these books in their original form -- 12 novels and two short story collections. Reproducing the original typesetting and formats from the first editions from the Christie family's own archive copies, these books sport the original covers which have been painstakingly restored from the best available copies, reflecting five decades of iconic cover design.

作者简介

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.

　　阿加莎·克里斯蒂，原姓米勒，全名为阿加莎·玛丽·克拉丽莎·米勒，英国乃至世界文坛的侦探小说大师。1890年9月15日生于英国德文郡托基的阿什菲尔德宅邸，1976年1月12日，逝世于英国牛津郡的沃灵福德家中，安葬在牛津郡的圣玛丽教堂墓园，终年85岁。　　
　　阿加莎·克里斯蒂的父亲是英籍美国人弗雷德里克·阿尔瓦·米勒，母亲是英国人克拉丽莎·克拉拉·伯契默·米勒。她是家中的的第3个孩子，有1个姐姐玛格丽特·弗蕾莉·米勒和1个哥哥路易斯·蒙坦特·米勒。　　
　　阿加莎·克里斯蒂是一名高产的作家，她的作品不仅局限于侦探小说，全部作品包括66部长篇推理小说，21部短篇或中篇小说选集，15个已上演或已发表的剧本，3个剧本集，6部以笔名玛丽·维斯特麦考特发表的情感小说，2部以笔名阿加莎·克里斯蒂·马洛温发表的作品（包括记录异域生活的回忆录1部，宗教题材的儿童读物1部），1部自传，2部诗集，2本与侦探俱乐部的会员作家们合写的长篇推理小说（2本共3部）。阿加莎·克里斯蒂著作数量之丰仅次于莎士比亚。　阿加莎·克里斯蒂开创了侦探小说的"乡间别墅派"，即凶杀案发生在一个特定封闭的环境中，而凶手也是几个特定关系人之一。欧美甚至日本很多侦探作品也是使用了这一模式。　　
　　阿加莎·克里斯蒂一生有过2次婚姻，第1任丈夫是阿奇博尔德·克里斯蒂（离异）；第2任丈夫是马克斯·马洛温。她同第一任丈夫有过1个女儿罗莎琳德·克里斯蒂。她在晚年回忆自己的写作生涯，动笔写了一部自传。《阿加莎·克里斯蒂自传》是一本文笔相当优美的传记文学。自传为读者了解这位"侦探女王"的生平，提供了第一手资料，并成为侦探小说史上的重要文献。　　
　　她的生平事迹，已拍成传记片《阿加莎》。
