An Autobiography
Condition remarks:
Condition: Good to fair. Paperback. Page Condition: Good - possible tanning. Markings: possible previous owner inscription.
Agatha Christie's An Autobiography stands as one of the most intimate and candid memoirs ever written by a literary icon, chronicling her remarkable life from her idyllic Edwardian childhood in Torquay to her rise as the world's best-selling mystery writer. Written privately over a period of fifteen years and published posthumously in 1977, the memoir presents a vivid portrait of a woman who lived through two World Wars, a scandalous disappearance, and two marriages, all while producing 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections. With warmth, wit, and disarming honesty, Christie details her passions — archaeology, travel, and the quiet joys of domestic life — alongside the creative processes that gave birth to Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Far from a conventional literary confession, this is the story of a deeply private woman who, on her own terms, finally allows the world a glimpse behind the curtain of one of the twentieth century's most fascinating minds.
