Más emocionante que sus novelas: la polémica y apasionante autobiografÃa de Agatha Christie.
Una lectura apasionante que se lee con pasión . The Times
A lo largo de las tres décadas desde su muerte en 1976, muchos lectores y crÃticos de Agatha Christie han sostenido que su libro más convincente es el menos conocido: su AutobiografÃa. A pesar de sus éxitos, siempre fue una persona muy celosa de su intimidad, llegando a extremos extravagantes por eludir las apariciones en público. Rodeó su vida con un manto de misterio casi tan impenetrable como el de sus novelas.
En esta obra nos cuenta los años felices de la infancia en el extranjero, los devaneos amorosos de la juventud, sus dos matrimonios, asà como los contratiempos al comenzar la carrera de escritora y la consecución gradual de su éxito. Es la autobiografÃa de alguien que supo disfrutar de la vida y, al mismo tiempo, el estudio de una profesional consciente, de una escritora que sabÃa perfectamente cuál era su trabajo y que nos cuenta cómo lo realizó.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
More exciting than her novels: the controversial and thrilling autobiography of Agatha Christie.
A fascinating read that is read with passion. The Times
Over the three decades since her death in 1976, many readers and critics of Agatha Christie have argued that her most compelling book is the least known: her Autobiography. Despite her successes, she was always a very private person, going to extravagant lengths to avoid public appearances. She surrounded her life with a veil of mystery almost as impenetrable as her novels.
In this work, she recounts the happy years of her childhood abroad, the romantic flings of her youth, her two marriages, the setbacks at the start of her writing career, and the gradual achievement of her success. It is the autobiography of someone who knew how to enjoy life and, at the same time, a study of a conscious professional, a writer who knew exactly what her job was and how she carried it out.
